xfce4-panel appears behind the bspwm windows. #1506

I just recently installed bspwm in xfce4, and everything works fine except that the windows are overlapping the panel for unknown reasons, I have chosen as a workaround to add: xfce4-panel --restart right at the end of my bspwmrc file, so that when I restart the window manager the panel looks the way it should, overlapping the windows. Clearly this is not an optimal solution because every time I log in I have to restart the window manager with the shortcut, so if anyone knows how to fix this issue I would appreciate it. ❤️

The configuration settings for padding: top_padding, right_padding, bottom_padding, left_padding. You may have to play around a bit to get the right values. In the manual page, the SETTINGS section, Monitor and Desktop Settings subsection.
