Awesome. That should be an easy fix.

Waaaaay back in the Win95 days when the Task Bar was new, I got into the habit of running it at the top of my screens. Unfortunately, many applications assume it's on the bottom and by default open their main window or dialogs in positions that puts some or all of the window's titlebar behind the Task Bar.

Obviously it isn't a DF problem in any way, but it would be nice if DF could fix this. I've just put up with it all these years, but this morning I realized perhaps it would be an easy fix... ]]>
