Description

When the user has the taskbar with autohide on, if isAlwaysOnTop is true the menubar overlays the taskbar, if not, it gets overlaid and gets content compromised.

Expected Behavior

Native behavior, the taskbar with autohide on never gets hidden until focus is lost and the menubar window is closed.

Actual Behavior

Window gets either on top or behind the taskbar and taskbar gets hidden before focus is lost

Specifications

  • Menubar version: 9.2.1
  • Platform: Windows 10
  • Electron version: 20.1.0

Other information

I managed to implement it myself with ffi napi and some very intrusive code (basically it completely changes the windows configuration to disable autohide and then menubar takes care of repositioning) which is not a really good approach, and it's the first GIF I showed. Code is here for anyone interested (first few lines).
