Reserving desktop space for ObjectDock

How do I do this?

from Stardock Forums
The information about ObjectDock 1.3 says, "Docks can now reserve the edge of a screen so that windows cannot cover them." I really wanted that feature so I was excited to see it and I upgraded to 1.30 today. I couldn't figure out how to get it to work, so I spent the $20 and paid for ObjectDock 1.30 Plus. I still can't figure out how to do it. When I click on the Maximize button of a window, the window zooms open and goes all the way to the bottom of the screen, where I have ObjectDock. I can still see ObjectDock, but it covers up part of the zoomed windows. What am I missing? What do I check so the the dock will "reserve the edge of a screen so that windows cannot cover" it?

Right click on the bottom dock and choose Dock settings.
Click on the "positioning" section.
Bottom option - Reserve edge. Autohide if desired.

$20 well spent!

This works only with tabbed docks. With regular docks you need to go to the same "positioning" section. Where it says "Z-Ordering" choose "Always on top". And I agree that the new features on this program are great. The ability to now move docks off the edges is a winner.
