Comment 3 for bug 498995

I'm not sure how to reproduce this bug but it happens now and then.

I've set the dock to autohide. It always works correctly but once in a while the dock is not able to be shown above all the other windows on `autoshow' by mousehovering over the edge. The labels that normally are shown on mouseover are shown topmost. Just the dock is not shown. Also, clicking the invisible icons does nothing. So focus is definitely on the current shown window.

When only half of the dock is shown (i.e., half of it is covered by a window), the part of the dock visible is clickable, the half that is obscured is not.

Problem can be resolved by restarting docky.
