 Hi,

I have installed Cool beans cpu meter and manipulated it with AWM, so that it appears on my second screen on top of the AWM 2nd taskbar on the left side as shown in pic1:

Unfortunately, when I click on the start button of the AWM 2nd taskbar or hold the mouse over taskbutton of the taskbar (tooltip appears), the AWM taskbar overrides the ontop attribute I've given to the cpu monitor. See here:

If I stop and restart AWM it's Ok again (as in pic1).

 ....I just saw that the Multimonitor taskbar is included in the exclusion list by default. I've de-activated it and added a specific rule which "freezes" not-on top property for the multi-mon taskbar. Now it's OK....

 Hi,

I'd like to revisit this, since the problem described hereinabove still happens regularly.

Yesterday I was looking for a systeminfo program and I came across this:

http://www.moo0.com/software/SystemMonitor/#SystemMonitor

Each and every time I start the Moo Sysmonitor, the multimonitor taskbar gets ontop the other windows, athough it's set to be not ontop (+freeze) and the other windows are set to be always on top(+freeze)...

Could you please check into the matter again?

Thanks!

 Thanks for the report. Well, let's wait for some time to make sure it won't appear again. :) Please let us know if you notice something wrong...

 Please fix this....in the 6.0 b1 version it's much worse than in the 5.x series...

Thanks for taking note!
