Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/58.0.3013.3 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Start chrome 2. Start a strut/dock application 3. Go full screen in say, YouTube What is the expected behavior? Chrome's fullscreen window should be the only thing visible. What went wrong? The strut window that was started after chrome appear on top of the chrome full screen window. Note that if the strut is started BEFORE chrome is started, things behave as expected. Did this work before? No Chrome version: 58.0.3013.3 Channel: canary OS Version: 4.13.5-1-ARCH Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 27.0 r0 For an example of an application that reserves strut space you might use polybar, taffybar or lemonbar.

Can anyone look at this issue?

Please file a bug with your window manager. That's what should be keeping fullscreen windows on top.

I can understand why you might think that is the case, but in the case of a strut window (A window which has explicitly requested that it not be managed by the window manager), it is not actually the responsibility of the window manager to handle this.

Can you reproduce the issue with fullscreen videos in firefox?

Firefox handles fullscreen differently than chrome in that it stays within the window allocated to it by the window manager, so no, not as far as i can tell.
