[BUG]: Rainmeter widgets always on top

[Zerogaku]

Describe the bug This might be an unintended side effect of how floating windows are treated (as in always placed at the top), so when tiling with komorebi, rainmeter is always overlaying applications, i've tried changing rainmeter's position settings but to no avail, it will only be displayed normally in the background when pausing or stopping komorebi. "ignoring" rainmeter with float rules doesn't work how I would like it, and I can't seem to find a rule that "moves application behind every other window".

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• Download rainmeter
• Run it alongside komorebi with any skin
• change workspaces or open new windows (doing these will reset rainmeter back to the top

Expected behavior Rainmeter should stay behind any open windows (if "on desktop" or "bottom" position is set for the widgets)

Screenshots and Videos komorebi on:

komorebi off:

Operating System Provide the output of systeminfo | grep "^OS Name\|^OS Version"

For example:

OS Name:                   Microsoft Windows 11 Home
OS Version:                23H2 Build 22631.3155

komorebic check Output Provide the output of komorebic check

No KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected, defaulting to C:\Users\Null

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\Null

Found komorebi.json; this file can be passed to the start command with the --config flag

Found C:\Users\Null\.config\whkdrc; key bindings will be loaded from here when whkd is started, and you can start it automatically using the --whkd flag

If running 'komorebic start --await-configuration', you will manually have to call the following command to begin tiling: komorebic complete-configuration

Additional context Add any other context about the problem here.

In particular, if you have any other AHK scripts or software running that handle any aspect of window management or manipulation

I am using autohotkey version 2 for keybindings (for focusing, opening, closing windows, changing layouts, etc)

[Looki2000]

it's a very annoying bug to me too. I hope it will be fixed.

I'm probably not going to look into personally this since I don't use Rainmeter, but I think this is a great first issue for anyone who is really bothered by it. You can start by playing around with the various flags here: https://github.com/LGUG2Z/komorebi/blob/master/komorebi/src/windows_api.rs#L360
