So, for example, when you have a full page of a program (i.e. firefox, gimp...) you still have AWN at the bottom of the screen. A solution could be the auto-hide feature. <BR/>But i'd prefer an option such as:<BR/>"Keep behind maximized windows".<BR/>So you can have AWN visible with no windows (or minimized one) and a full page with maximized windows.<BR/>I belive my english could be ugly so I prepared an image to explain.<BR/>http://img501.imageshack.us/img501/2894/immaginehg4.jpgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7777643573072664808.post-6702380564416798592007-02-15T17:06:00.000+00:002007-02-15T17:06:00.000+00:00@Andres : its a feature! but I svn committed witho...@Andres : its a feature! but I svn committed without having the ability to turn it off !
