description The present invention relates generally to docked applications and application toolbars. More specifically, it relates to continuously maintaining visibility of and accessability to docked applications, including conveying information to a user while docked applications are presented as a minimal pixel representation. A method and system is presented which enables the user to maintain the receipt of information from an application bar while the application bar is minimized. In addition, the conveyance of information and availability of controls to the user is maintained while the user moves the window which the application bar is docked to off or around the presentation space.
