Hi!

First of all, thank you for creating Seelen UI. I've been enjoying it a lot.

I'm using the latest version of Seelen UI on Windows 11 24H2.

When I press Win + D (Show Desktop), all Seelen UI desktop components disappear together, including:

  • Dock / Taskbar
  • Desktop Media Player
  • Desktop widgets

Pressing Win + D again restores them.

Expected behavior:

When using Win + D, I would like the Dock and desktop widgets to remain visible on the desktop, or at least have an option to keep them visible.

I use Win + D very frequently because it's the fastest shortcut to return to the desktop, so having all Seelen UI widgets disappear every time is a bit inconvenient.

I understand this may be related to changes in Windows 11 24H2, but I wanted to ask:

  • Is this a known issue?
  • Is there any workaround?
  • Would it be possible to add an option such as: "Keep Dock/Widgets visible when using Win + D (Show Desktop)"?

Thank you for your time!
