Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. First reproduce the reported behavior with focused and unfocused programs, then inspect how DimThing dims the display and handles the taskbar and context menu; done means the intended taskbar behavior is confirmed or corrected, with context-menu support explicitly verified.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The taskbar is dimmed only when hasn't focused programs, else it gain bright.

Picture

Any hot fix @LaserFlash? Thanks for your time.

PS: Respect to context menu, I think is not possible. I've seen many other related tools with the same issue.
