Probably yes but that doesn't solve the problem. It does no good for me to check if lSwitcher is opened before the xCenter. If lSwitcher has reduced the desktop and then xCenter does the same the damage is done. While I can tell that xCenter has been opened by then it is too late to do anything.  

If it were, I would think to do the 'pseudo-reduce' when

So you like the Desktop titlebar? This is a PM feature not something I am doing.

Updated. It still wasn't quite right here. Try the attached.

This is a stupid wipfc trick. I found the problem with it and it now works as expected. Thanks
