[Bug 461335] Re: Even though I tell cairo-dock to not function as a taskbar, it still does in some ways...

 

well I'm sorry but you didn't reply for 3 weeks so I thought the problem was over.
If you deactivate the taskbar in the Dock, without restarting your gnome-panel, windows will of course continue to minimize to the dock, because windows are bound to a position on the screen, and not to the panel or the dock.

Morevoer, it's strictly impossible for the dock to set the position of
the minimized window if it does not act as a taskbar (you need at least
the X ID of the window to do that, and the dock doesn't record them if
the taskbar is not active)

So I maintain this bug invalid, except if you can provide more details
and a way to reproduce it (because I just don't have this issue on my
PC).

Bug description:
Binary package hint: cairo-dock

I want to use cairo-dock solely as a launcher, while still making use of my regular Ubuntu taskbar.

When I disable the taskbar functionality (even though the module is forced-on), when I minimize an application, it minimizes to cairo dock.

When I have compiz window previews enabled, they also don't show up when I hover over my taskbar, but they do when I hover over cairo-dock.
