[Locked] Auto-hide behavour when an application is in fullscreen mode

I have a dual-screen configuration of my desktop and am using Cairo-dock without the auto-hide function on the smaller display. Expected behavour is that the dock should always be present on the screen, but unfortunately it isn't.

The problem appears when I start to watch a movie on the bigger display in fullscreen mode. Cairo-dock seems to detect this and automatically hide (like if auto-hide is active) ignoring the fact that it is located on another physical display and not disturbing the fullscreen application. There should be an option like: never under no circumstances auto-hide.

Hello,

Do you use the option Xinerama in Position menu (of Cairo-Dock's config pannel ?)

Or in Accessibility, you can activate "Keep the dock below other windows ?"

Or in Taskbar, you can disable "Automatically quick-hide the dock when a window becomes fullscreen ?"

Hi, thanks for the response. I have been using Cairo-dock 1.6.3 and wasn't aware of 2.0.1. Now that I installed it it works fine with the XINERAMA option.
