Lol. K. It's a dock program called RK launcher.
I love it, but if i click Show Desktop, it's gone.
If i check the "Always on top" in RK launcher,
it won't vanish, but it is literally always on top
blocking useful info sometimes.
So, i want to keep the dock and I don't want
to give up on Show Desktop.
There should be a compromise right?
If i could modify Show Desktop to add that
exclusion or simply re-run the dock in the end,
this problem would be solved.
Of course other solutions will also be
appreciated!
