As a commercial alternative, see the ready-to-use ShellAppBar component which supports all cases and secnarios such as taskbar docked to left,right,top,bottom edge, support for multiple monitors, drag-docking, autohide , etc etc.

It sounds like you want to create an AppBar.

I suggest you first check out the AppBar implementation included with the Genghis package. I couldn't say if it's any good since I never used it, but it looks promising.

Manually, you would have to use a few Win32 API calls to reserve/free the screen space and achieve the effect you're looking for, as detailed in this article.

Good luck!
