Issue Description:
While calling window.overwolf.windows.maximize(); the window position is not affected by the taskbar location/visibility (while it should).
Happens with any Overwolf window (currently reproduced with my app & game summary & appstore).

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Change the taskbar to be on the left.
  2. Maximize any app.

Impact for my app: low (but we are aiming to have the maximized state as the default one)

Ps. This issue is there for at least 2 years… Never got to file it.

@Genizzz welcome to our community, and thanks for the feedback.
I will create a bug on this matter and update you with the progress. (might take time as it’s a low priority bug).

Thanks.

@eransharv Why is it considered low priority? It makes the process of maximizing windows a very bad experience for users in this condition.
Or is there a known workaround?

@sebastientromp we’ll try fixing it on version 149

@sebastientromp we fixed this bug in version 0.147.
I haven’t tested it, though.

Is 0.147 available on the Developers channel? This channel is on 0.145 for me.
