[Bug 1404485] Re: Dock hides unneccessarily on 2-monitor system
Just for info if anyone finds this by search: I had it happen again, and
fixed it by sending a restart to openbox. There must be a bug in openbox
(3.5.2) where it loses track of application windows.
An additional symptom is that the Cairo-Dock Switcher, which normally
shows a map of each virtual desktop with the icons on the correct sides,
was showing all stacked on the left, as if they were all on Monitor 0.
Restarting openbox fixed this too.

Title:
Dock hides unneccessarily on 2-monitor system
Status in Cairo-Dock : Core:
Invalid
Bug description:
On upgrading to cairo-dock 3.4.0 (Debian unstable (AMD64) with
Openbox) my "Visibility" setting of "Hide the dock whenever it
overlaps any windows" seemed not to be working -- the dock would hide
even on an empty screen.
It turned out that cairo-dock believes that it overlaps if a window is
maximised on the *other* monitor.
If the window is dragged to maximum size, rather than maximised, there
is no problem.
