Firefox blocks Objecktdock from appearing
Thursday, October 4, 2012 by emil9216 | Discussion: ObjectDock
I recently upgraded to Firefox 15 and the problem i am facing now is that Objectdock doesn't appear when Firefox is the active window. My settings are keep objectdock at the bottom and appearing when the mouse touch the screen edge. But for some reason objectdock can't appear when firefox is the active window.
Anyone else has the same problem?

I mean when Firefox is maximized but not in a full screen. I think the problem is with the new version of Firefox because i didn't have this problem with the old version Firefox 3.6. Sizer is a good program but didn't help.

more precisely: don't maximize \ full screen Firefox using the window system button or F11 or any Addon
1) resize the Firefox window manually (with your mouse) but don't reach the edges of the screen just leave 2\3 pixels free
I'm sure that ObjectDock will reappear, on restart Firefox will remember the last size window and position
2) Sizer will be useful to automize the process just in case Firefox window will change but you have to spend some minutus to set the same values you found on point 1)
btw I also have Firefox 15 ... and let me know

Firefox is maximized from the window middle button not in a full screen (F11 key). And yes if i resize firefox and leave 2/3 pixels from the bottom objectdock appears but the question is why it is not appearing when firefox is maximized. I guess i have to ask firefox support because i don't have this problem with other programs when they are the active window.

If you move your dock to the top of the screen until you can get this issue resolved, none of these issues occur.

Do you mean when Firefox is the active window and also fullscreen ?
if yes maybe you can use the trick I suggested on reply# 7 here
basically you don't get the fullscreen but using Sizer you can resize every window whenever you want setting few pixels free from the top (or every other edge)
