Hey all. NooB to the Litestep, but loving it. Quick question. I have my "taskbar" (the simplicity bar I mean) put at the top of my monitor instead of the bottom. Is there any way to modify any of the *.rc files so that when i maximize a program / dir / any window, that it doesn't overlap the simplicity task bar?

Thanks in advance

you need to edit one of your rc files to add a SetDesktopArea command which is covered in the <a href="http://lsdocs.shellfront.org/desktop.php">docs</a>.

you shouldn't need to. do you have the latest version of simplicity?

Yeah. I figured it out. I have a dual monitor system so the maximize wasn't working properly for some reason. I added the following code to my base.rc file to make it work:

SetDesktopAreaMainMonitorOnly true
SetDesktopArea
SDATop 68
SDABottom 0
SDALeft 0
SDARight 0

Problem solved. Thanks for all the help.
