Force dock over windows?

Haven't found a solution yet after all these years. Is there an app or a setting that forces dock over windows? Example:

MacBook Pro

Yes in the short run but the system adjusts the window above the dock if you try to move or resize it. It also happens if you first create a new tab (CMD + T) in Chrome and then click on a shortcut (in the middle of the screen).

Also,
Apple developers, please respond. Why can't you support this and add an option in the dock settings?


Chrome is not necessarily optimized for Mac but you can contact the third party app developer...

Maybe I do not grok the issue—your lower screen shot seems to show the Dock over the window(?)



Hmmm. If you set your Dock to show/hide automatically— it will rise above open windows in most any situation, ie full screen mode or not full screen mode...


an example screen shot—

the magnification is turned on here as well
