AES->desktop: redraw root-window
desktop: v_bar(root-window-size)..., ->AES:d_icon...

I can catch the d_icon but not the v_bar. I can hide the complete desktop-background or the desktop hides mine.

Only way would be to draw the icons from the hidden desktop-window above mine, but that is a kludge.

If the desktop would only draw icons which would be above the root-window from XaAES (or some other app) it would be easy.
