Just installed DevilSpie created a hotcorner and the dock disappear everytime I use it [duplicate]

Question

Just installed DevilSpie according to this topic:

How can I view the desktop?

The problem is, every time I hit the hot corner, plank disappears. How can I use the specific commands listed in there without minimizing Plank or panel?

Answer 1

You need to tell devilspie to ignore plank and wingpanel. In the minimize.ds file you should have something like:

(if
     (begin
        (not(is(application_name) "wingpanel")))
(if
    (begin
        (not(is(application_name) "plank")))
(begin
    (minimize)
    (quit))
))

EDIT: I also updated the instructions in How can I view the desktop?, it is quite a nifty feature and I think it should be available in elementary OS by default.
