A menu bar, a dock and Search for Windows 11.

This desktop is live. Right-click the menu bar, or make the dock your own.

A dock with magnification, stacks and unread counts

Pinned apps and open windows, with a dot under the ones running and a count of unread notifications. Drag icons into any order, drop in an app from Search to keep it, or a folder from File Explorer to open it as a stack.

Size, spacing, magnification and hiding are all yours to set.

Magnification

The menu bar takes your app's colour

The menu bar takes the colour of the window under it, so the app seems to fill the screen. The dock slides away to give it the room, and comes back when you move to the bottom edge.

Wi-Fi, sound and brightness in one panel

Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, what's playing, brightness and sound in Control Center, each with a page of its own: pick an output, set the microphone, keep the PC awake. Switches for Do Not Disturb, dark mode, airplane mode and your hotspot sit underneath. The clock opens your calendar and notifications. Try it.

Hourly and weekly weather in the menu bar

The temperature sits next to your status icons. Click it for what the next hours bring, the week ahead, and the humidity, wind, UV and sunrise.

Your taskbar is back when you quit

Right-click the menu bar and choose Quit Glassline. The taskbar and Start menu return exactly as they were. If Glassline ever closes unexpectedly, or you uninstall it, they come back on their own.
