C1TaskBarButton manages the application button on the Windows 7 taskbar. With it, you can create jump lists, add thumbnail buttons, and display progress indicators on the taskbar with this straightforward, developer-friendly component.

There are essentially three elements to the C1TaskbarButton control. The first is the taskbar button itself, which can be modified with progress indicators and icon overlays; the second is the jump list, which appears when users right-click the taskbar button; and the third is the thumbnail, which appears when users hover over the taskbar button.

Before you begin working with the different elements of the C1TaskbarButton control, it is recommended that you read the C1TaskbarButton Operating System Compatibility topic.
