How to avoid this

Hi everybody,

I've noticed that every window drops behind the AWN bar at the bottom, see screenshot. How can I avoid this?
Many thanks!

Hi nomko,

try dconf-editor:

dconf-editor > org > gnome > nautilus > window-state

or simply open settings for awn and set Autohide to keep below.And set behavior to window dodge.

Hi bilfriis, plus one on that. dconf has its place but reminds me too much of the Windows Registry - ordinary users just want a 'control panel'!

Where do i find this?

I disabled that option of yours but no result.

Just right click on the awn in a place with no icons. Then click on settings.

Just right click on the awn in a place with no icons. Then click on settings.

I have 5 tabs:
- preferences
- taskmanager
- applets
- themes
- advanced

Neither of these tabs shows the Autohide option...

Hi,

right click AWN > Dock Preferences > Prefences > Behaviour:

I tried that but that lets my taskbar/menubar disappear. But i want the taskbar/menubar to stay and don't allow any window to go behind it as show in my screenshot.

Thanks again.

Ringht click on awn then click on settings and then try to set behaviour to panelmode.

Hi,

if you didn't play around with the settings in Dconf Editor per my earlier suggestion, you might want to look here:
