I cannot see any check box to remember my choice

Title:
  Flashing, Autohide not working, lots of other problems

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core:
  New

Bug description:
  V 3.4.1
  Using with :
  Ubuntu 15.04
  openGL
  Video: Radeon HD6310
  Driver: 14.201.1006.1002-140902a-175601C-ATI
  Problems:
  When autohide enabled, the dock either will not appear, or half (1 side, or top or bottom) appears or flickers appearing and disappearing quickly.
  If the dock does appear it sometimes will not auto-hide.
  The dock can only really be used reliably by minimising all windows.
  When all windows are minimised the dock responds, but animations do not work.
  There are lots of other small problems, eg, if the time is clicked the calandar appears, but clicking it again does not make it go away.
