Windows 10: task bar layout

I was wondering if there was a way to customize the location of the start button and date and time along with the home screen button instead of having it be in the top right/left corner when vertical have it in the bottom right/left corner when vertical?

More custom layout on Task Bar

I use to put the Task Bar on the left of the desktop and strech it wider to see program titles on Task Bar. With a wider Task Bar, it can save more vertical space for program positions with more custom layout.

(1) Custom date time. Now it is time then day of the week then date from top to bottom. With custom date time, we can display them in just one line to save vertical space.

(2) Embed the input method icon into the icon lists, now the single input method icon occupy a whole line.

(3) Grid instead of list for programs. For example, some program don't need its title to be displayed on the Task Bar such as Task Manager/Screen Shot Tool, for such program, with a wide Task Bar, we can put 2 instance per line, e.g. put Task Manager and
Screen Shot Tool on the same line. Even better we can configure this behavior for each program.
