I'm gonna try putting the Control Bar at the bottom. I think it might work better for me. HAdn't even thought of this before. 
 
Thanks for the idea, Konrad!

Yep, at the bottom here, too. I use to keep it hidden, anyway, it's so easy to press C when needed...

The only thing I use my control bar for is the global mute and solo buttons, the clock and the performance module. It otherwise seems like a waste of space for me personally. 
 
But maybe everyone should try docking it at the bottom, it might just work for them. Some time ago I shifted my Windows taskbar to the top of the screen after years of it being at the bottom, and I found it worked much better for me up there.

I guess today's plans are made.  Win Task Bar to the top, Sonar Control Bar to the bottom.
 
I hope this doesn't create a quake or twister somewhere ...

Control bar for Sonar has always been at the bottom, while the windows task bar is on the left.

I always have mine at the bottom as well. Usually keep it hidden and just press C when I need it.

I think I like Win TB at the top better.  Never tried it before today.  Can't deal with Sonar CB at the bottom.
 
Both on top for me.

Contol Bar at the bottom. Windows taskbar is at the top. Inspector on the 2nd display floating and Browser floating next to inspector on the right side, on the top of RME Totalmix.
 
This is THE correct setup. :)

Floating, placed on the bottom of the upper monitor; mainly used to show Now time in bars and beats, selection range and loop range.  Track View on upper monitor on top (most of the upper monitor).  Multiple PRVS (10-12) taking turns on the lower monitor.   Less often used windows like tempo map, console, share the lower monitor.   EL on a portrait mode monitor at right.   Big time at the bottom of the right monitor showing now time in clock time (wish they would put the ability to show time in more than one way into the control bar!)   Because there is so much space on three big monitors, I try to use keyboard shortcuts for everything.   CW is not real helpful with this goal, unfortunately, there is still a lot of reaching for the mouse.
