Floating toolbar

I want to create a toolbar at the top of my application's screen,  
like the toolbar in Acrobat or Word.

I've got as far as making an always-on-top interface containing a row  
of icons, but how do I stop other windows sliding underneath it?

I've tried (setf (capi:screen-internal-geometry on the screen object,  
but that isn't allowed. Any suggestions?

Many thanks, David Johnson-Davies
