When using the transparent taskbar, maximizing a window doesn't look very pleasant:
or
The taskbar is visually disrupting, it doesn't look very elegant.
Describe the solution you'd like
If the window (e.g. firefox) would extend past the taskbar margin, it would look a lot more pleasant:
or
The window does this when the taskbar is set to auto-hide. (that's how I got the screenshots)
I'd imagine it's possible to remove the taskbar's alignment border/margin to have the maximized window maximize all the way even though auto-hide is disabled.
I want to stress that I don't want the taskbar to hide, I think that's very annoying. I want it to stay visible.
Another idea would be to actually set the auto-hide option to ON, but then somehow prevent the taskbar from actually hiding. I don't know which one is easier, removing the alignment border or preventing the taskbar from hiding somehow.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I tried googling on how to remove the taskbar border or how to increase the timeout before the taskbar hides, but to no avail.
I also tried to compare the differences in the registry backups I created before and after en/disabling auto-hide, but couldn't really figure anything out.
