Excellent, thanks!

One more question to links: on my system, the link text ist colored, and once the mouse is over it, it gets underlined. I was looking very hard but which property determines whether the underlining appears only on demand or always?

I would like to see my links underlined all the time. Any clue? Thanx!

Try adjusting the margins to compensate for the missing icon:

'This sample code illustrates how to change the margins around a task panel item.
Dim Group As TaskPanelGroup
Dim Item As TaskPanelGroupItem
Set Group = wndTaskPanel.Groups.Add(0, "System Tasks")
Set Item = Group.Items.Add(1, "Normal", xtpTaskItemTypeLink, 1)
Set Item = Group.Items.Add(2, "Left 15", xtpTaskItemTypeLink, 1)
Item.SetMargins 15, 0, 0, 0
Set Item = Group.Items.Add(3, "Zero", xtpTaskItemTypeLink, 1)
Item.SetMargins 0, 0, 0, 0
Set Item = Group.Items.Add(4, "Left -15", xtpTaskItemTypeLink, 1)
Item.SetMargins -15, 0, 0, 0

is it possible to display a link without an image?

Taskpanel item without image : I'd like to use regular items...

I'd like to use regular items and link items in a task panel group:

.Items.Add 0, "Test1.", xtpTaskItemTypeText
.Items.Add 1, "Test2", xtpTaskItemTypeLink

However, when I use xtpTaskItemTypeLink, the text is somewhat shifted to the right as if there was some reserved space for an icon which I do not use (except for the group headers). I wonder why this only happens with type link, not with type text.
