| Post subject: | Buffer area to the left of the start menu icon |
I've installed CSM on a bunch of windows 2012 machines I administer. To keep the other admin from griping, I've left the default corner hover behavior on even though I hate it. I wish I could make CSM leave a little blank space to the left of its icon. I want this because I often move the mouse too far towards the corner and then I get the start screen popup covering up CSM's icon. If the icon was a bit too the right, then I'd be able to mouse there a bit more easily. This would be an optional setting. |

Moving the button to the right will break Fitt's law for most users so it's a bad idea to leave space to the left of the button |

It doesn't break Fitt's law if it's an OPTION. Otherwise, countless other options in CSM do, too. And no, the other ways don't help because I'm trying to have it maintain the original win8 behavior, not have to teach everyone in our office that if they control a machine where I've installed CSM, they need to learn new, non-standard ways of using the OS. I'm trying to wedge CSM into our office in a very unobtrusive way. |

A custom Start button will solve your problem. If you use a wider image, space can be reserved on the left side. Here, I made one for you (attached). See if it works for you. Look in the help if you need to adjust the space more. The button height must be 3 times the width obviously.
