OK, so I have several objects lining the edges of my screen. Some are DX objects, one is Sysmetrix, one is ObjectDock, and there are a few others. Each takes up little space, but for various reasons I like them all to be visible, all the time.
Obviously, I don't want them interfering with open application windows or getting in the way, so I can't just simply set them all to "Always on Top" for fear they'll interfere or block important data in maximized windows. But with needing to see each pretty regularly, even while app windows are open on the screen (especially then), I need a way to limit the area any window will occupy, whether maximized or not.
DesktopX supposedly has this feature, but the feature seems to be broken in the 1.94 version. I can set pixel values for top, bottom, left and right margins, and they work for maximized windows, until my screensaver pops on or the PC returns to login (it, by necessity, must do so if I'm away from it for longer then about 15 minutes). Also, running certain apps or adjusting any number of various system settings seems to cancel the margin effect until I disable and re-enable it in the DX Theme Settings tab. And they don't seem to affect regular windows at all; only maximized windows adhere to the margins, while all others ignore them completely.
Does anyone know of a program out there that just--consistently--sets screen margins that all **windows** will obey. Obviously, I don't want something that will reserve that space completely, or the objevts and apps that run there now won't be able to. I just want to limit all windows themselves from trespassing into that space.
Thanks.
