Snap to panel, not allowing to go under it

#1 Post by PixLab »

Hello,

I have a little problem with the Xfce panel, when I open a window the top window goes under the panel, thus I cannot move it by dragging it, I need to use Alt+ right button to reduce the window size to be able to reach the top window to move it.

Where can I find how to stop this behavior and (going under the panel) and instead snap to the bottom panel if I change the size of a window or move it like it does on the side of the screen and the bottom screen?
(my panel is at the top of the screen)
Thanks for reading

Never mind I did find out, if you move the Panel with a right click > Panel Preferences > etc..., the auto hide/snapping and other options are not taken in count :rolleyes:

You need to move the Panel from "MX Tweak" and everything will work
