Default Drag docker to completely hide main window

Sorry if this has been requested before though I haven't found it. The title is pretty self explanatory, I think but I'll develop:

So this is my main windows set:

But if I drag the mixer on the left, there's always a limit so the main window (arrange view) is still visible:

Though what use is in it being so small and preventing me from having all the mixer space I want?

This is another of window set I use:

Same here, I cannot drag the mixer up to hide the TCP and ruler. This is the closest I managed to do to get this around:

But floating mixer can be troublesome. Since there are some other FRs on improving the dockers system and probably the dev team is working on it, I hope they can give this a little time.

what is the problem with floating mixer?
Float the mixer, and double click the title bar of the window of the mixer. It will become full screen mixer. Use a shortcut to toggle mixer on/off. I use F1 key for example.

That almost does it, but everytime I'm using any other window (a plugin, routing matrix, whatever), if I click on the mixer they all hide behind it unless I pin the windows to keep them on top and that's a once per window task so that won't do it for me.

As it is now, Reaper let us shrink the main window to the point is not useful anymore but still takes a chunk of screen space one could use for other things. Just ALT+D to hide all the dockers and maximize main window if you need to edit an item and then ALT+D again.

Pero casi, casi... ¡muchas gracias de todos modos!

I've never done this "up" thing before, sorry! I just still wish for this to happen someday.

Is there a way to do this so the mixer doesn't hide any other floating window everytime I click on it, apart from anchoring every other those window, which I'm so not doing?
