taskbartouchscreenwindows 8
I have been searching for an answer for this for a while and have not found anything.
On Windows 8 with a touch screen, I have the task bar set to autohide (something I've preferred in Windows forever). With a touch screen, I can't seem to figure out how to get to the taskbar when it autohides. Does anyone know how I can access it using the touch screen?
With a newer firmware, the calibration is started from the integrated web configuration facility, which can be reached with the HP Utility on OS X, via the "Open embedded web server" button.
From there, navigating to System -> Service, there is a "Start calibration" button. Pressing this gave me the touch screen calibration screen on the printer and it actually worked this time.
Synaptics Gesture Suite™ Windows 8 for TouchPad™ enables this on Windows 8, you are not going to find something else because this often involves a driver. The two images on that page are quite small but I suppose youc an get to see these in the software itself again in a higher resolution. So, if you can manage to get the drivers and the Synaptics Gesture Suite working you can do that...

What I do is to drag from somewhere near the botton edge to the botton edge, this is not a gesture to bring the taskbar up but since it leaves the pointer at the botton edge when you finish the gesture the taskbar pops out. To my knowledge there is no way to show it without using a workaround, looks like MS is trying to get the classic desktop deprecated...
Sorry for such a late reply, I hope this is still relevant.
Cheers.
