i am using two screens, yes.
i just installed and activated metacity .. after reboot (due to crash 
after activating metacity) the desktop has mostly reset and some 
functions do not work as they should.

the cairo-dock hiding issue remains and the dock does not unhide.

i then reactivated marco using marco --replace
and saw:

Window manager warning: Missing composite extension required for 
compositingglibtop: Non-standard uts for running kernel:
release 3.10-2-amd64=3.10.0 gives version code 199168

i have now uninstalled metacity and marco is loaded again ok.

'use compositing' is enabled in the os settings.

if i disable 'fake compositing' in cairo-dock settings then the black 
bar appears with the cairo-dock.

i am fairly sure that cairo-dock did load ok initially, was hiding ok 
and was composited correctly without 'fake compositing' after initial 
install... possibly the nvidia driver was changed during the update pack 
7 installation of lmde.

Title:
  cairo dock does not un-hide

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core:
  New

Bug description:
  cairo dock v3.2.1 - with or without openGL

  i am seeing that the dock hides when windows are placed on top of it and does not re-appear when it should according to the settings.
  the other windows (e.g. thunderbird/firefox) are not set to 'stay on top' or any non-default setting.

  i changed the hide setting in cairo to 'always on top' and the dock
  still did not appear on top of other windows..

  changing theme does not resolve the issue.

  
  i am using linux mint debian edition mate 64 bit - with update pack 7.
   with nvidia driver 304.88
