Bug Description

I am using Avant Window Navigator 0.3.9.1~bzr1789-1.9.10 from the awn-testing PPA.

In the preferences, I chose the Edgy style and the screen position is all the way to the left, so that I have the quarter circle corner decoration.

Now, when I choose one of the autohide behaviours, I believe hiding should not kick in when the active window is behind the top of the quarter circle in the corner. Awn should only hide when the active window is behind the top horizontal line.

This would make it more consistent with panel mode too: when you maximise a window in panel mode, it goes all the way to the horizontal border, and not just to the top of the quarter circle.

Not really sure what to do about this one, I'm inclined to set it to Won't Fix, as the user would be unable to see what's under the circle anyway... Comments?

According to that logic, windows shouldn't be allowed to go under the top of the circle in panel mode either.

It's such a small bit space it's mostly only covering the window border anyway. The way it is now, the panel is going into hiding when it's not even covering anything worthwhile.
