By "always visible" do you mean the dock configuration setting "Always on top"?
I don't have this issue with the theme that I am using with cairo-dock 3.0.1 and xubuntu 11.04. The transparent part of the dock is probably something with that specific theme (I may be wrong I am not that familiar with that part). To test this you could save your current theme and try different ones to see if the issue gets resolved on different themes. I do know that with the dock set to "Always on top" it is up to the user to manage the windows because you have set the dock to always be over top of any other windows (for me the close and maximize buttons are not covered so they work but tabs in a browser can be covered because of my dock being in the center top of the screen). If you want to reserve space for the dock so maximized windows don't go under the dock then there is a setting for this called "Reserve space for the dock". This setting will tell the window manager not to put windows under the dock. I know the xfce panel used to have a setting to reserve space as well but I see now that it just forces reserve space unless the panel is set to auto hide. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Cairo- Dock Team, which is subscribed to Cairo-Dock Core. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1002547 Title: Top dock blocks the close, minimize and maximize button (right aling) when windows are maximized Status in Cairo-Dock : Core: Incomplete Bug description: Cairo 3.0.1 I've a centered top dock and its seems that any element at the right of the dock is locked by any transparent layer.
