I just tried the patch at home and it doesn't work. I also reviewed dwm's source code and my memory of the bar being risen was a bit faulty. I still think the stacking order is the problem here, but it seems my solution isn't the best. At work I'm on a 32-bit system, here I'm on 64-bit. I don't know if this makes any difference or if there is another problem. It might be a race condition between the XRaiseWindow in SDL and the receiving of the screen resize event in dwm. -- Eckehard Berns
