Allow pin mini player to bottom or side of screen to avoid overlapping. #32

Since it is shaped the way it is I would recommend allowing it to be pinned to the bottom of the screen. Which will push any other window to the top so there won't be overlapping at all. You could also pin it to the side but you would have to rotate the icons... and that is about it... Just suggesting.

Do you suggest that the application does not allow that other windows overlap the mini player ?

If yes, do you know of any such application which behaves in this way (preferable with source or any pointer on how to achieve this, from my knowledge, i do not think this is possible without using some kind of dock area build within the OS).

From friends, I received a request to pin the mini player such that clicking the tray icon will show the mini player at the position on which it last was positioned. This will be implemented in next release.

I can download the new update from the music player ? Or I have to download the Player again? I have to wait after work.

I am working on the updates with GDeskMaintenance but are currently caught between kids, sports, work, vacation and GDeskTunes. Have patience (all things are difficult before they become easy LOL)
