Pekwm + xfce4 panel [SOLVED]

Hi all

After reading in the forum about pekwm I decided to give it a shoot.
I just love the "tabed" window funktion

Now to the problem
The trouble i have is that when I'm using mplayer or gmplayer in fullscreen mode the panel and iconbox is in the foreground.
Conky and all other windows stays in the background
Is there a way to alter this behaivior.

My .xinitrc

xfce4-iconbox &
xfdesktop &
xfce4-panel &
conky &
exec pekwm

Many thanks
Clanman

I don't know the specifics, but I suspect you can use autoproperties for each window that sets them to a lower layer somehow

Hi Dusty

After your tip I dug into Pekwm and found the autoproperties
~/.pekwm/autoproperties

I added this

Property = "^xfce4-panel,^Xfce4-panel" {
        ApplyOn = "Start"
        Layer = "Harbour"
}
Property = "^MPlayer,^MPlayer" {
        ApplyOn = "Start New"
        Layer = "Menu"
}

Now my mplayer gets the top window placement.

Tanks for the tip
