Is there a setting to keep maximized apps on top of dock?

Tuesday, May 29, 2018 by VampireFox2 | Discussion: Docks

Hi,

 

Is there a way that I can keep my dock at the bottom but at the same time keep maximized applications on top of it?

In the RD settings click on "Position" where it says "Layering" choose "Always on bottom".  I have mine set to "Always on top" and in the "Behavior" it's set to "Auto Hide" so I can access it anytime.

The Winstep Nexus Dock already does that (and much more lol) natively, if you want to try it out.

All you need to do is enable the 'Prevent maximized windows from overlapping the dock' setting.

Hey I figured it out! There's already an option natively in ObjectDock. Go to the settings and click on Position, under "More Options" it has "Reserve edge of screen" as an option. Enable that and you're good to go.

You didn't specify which dock you were using. You had a link to RocketDock so I assumed that was the dock you were using.
