Tiling windows are partially obscured by non-hiding dock.

[XV-02]

I believe this is a relatively recent regression, but am not positive.

When tiling, windows spawn such that their bottoms edges are obscured by the dock, but not such that their tops are obscured by the panels. Given that I believe this used to be working, and that as I understand it, the dock and the panel are built from the same underlying architecture, I'm inclined to think that the dock is the potential root cause.

I think I will need more information to replicate this issue. Is the dock set to autohide, but not hiding? And which app is being obscured?

Probably happens if the gap is enough to not trigger the autohide.

Sorry: The dock is not set to auto-hide, hence "non-hiding".

Any application can be obscured. The key is that the desktop is in tiling mode. So, in tiling I launch an application - could be Term, Firefox, whatever - and it will spawn the window. The top of the window will border the panel. But the bottom of the window with stretch to the bottom of the screen, and get obscured by the dock, which is drawn above it.

Hmm ok, this might be because of some changes to the installed defaults. If you toggle autohide on and off in settings, does it fix the issue?

If that's the case, it should be fixed by f3fd857

Yep. That resolved it. I'd only thought to try toggling the dock on/off.
