I agree with Alfredo that List isn't a good choice. What I think I should do is create a Widget tab and use #ifdefines to add the Taskbar tab in the exe build and add the Widget tab in the widget build. The Taskbar tab would be unchanged. The Widget tab would only have the settings that apply to the widget. Pages 2 and 3 would remain the same for both. As for Appearance that would be fine for the Widget but some of the Taskbar setting don't strike me as fitting with that.

Auto hide delay is Taskbar only.

I can do this with the appropriate names
Taskbar | Popup | Global | About
and
Widget | Popup | Global | About

Should be easy to do. Thanks
