the title of the thread isnt an accurate description of what im trying to do.
when ever i maximize a window it covers up the bar i have on the bottom that has all of my buttons, lxcommanc, etc etc. how would i go about finding out how to make it so that when i maximize a window it won't cover up my bar.

Instead of setting every single module as OnTop what you want to do is adjust your Desktop Area to not include your bar area. Read the desktop module's docs for info on this.
oh yeah, like explorer does, when you don't autohide the taskbar... see, that's why i love you people (and by 'you people' i mean devilboi)
im sorta confused, im using the xhenit theme and i want to always see the bottom bar, even when windows are maximized. i went to my litestep folder and dont know where to make the changes. do i make them in the theme.rc, or do i go to my personal folder and edit them in my personal.rc??
i want this to be a theme dependant change.
It should be in the theme.rc that you make the change.
then what would the personal.rc file be for?? i tried to search but the damn lemmings dont have it fixed yet.
ive tried a few thigns. in theme.rc its loading desktop2-2.0
the packaged readme directs me to a webpage that tells me to do somethign similar to this
SetDesktopArea
SDALeft 10
SDARight 0
SDATop 10
SDABottom -10
i deleted SDALeft, right, top and changed bottom to -30. saved and recycled and nothign happened. any advice? it says the new readme for desktop2-2.0 is being written.
the personal.rc is used for settings you want to apply to all themes. For example I have an icondesk config that I use on all themes.
Even if you don't want SDALeft, Right and Top you need to define them as 0. Also make sure that the SDA's aren't defined anywhere else. Rule of thumb...if its defined twice the one you don't want will be the one it uses.
ahh defining all the others worked well, i just assumed that they all defaulted at zero, guess i was wrong
