Make conky behave like tint2

Question

Is there a way to make conky behave like tint2? By this, I mean that when I maximize the window, the window should not go over the conky. In addition, the conky should be visible when show the desktop. Currently, the best I can do is make the conky go over my window. Here is my .conkyrc:
background yes
use_xft yes
xftfont Sans:size=9
xftalpha 1
update_interval 1.0
total_run_times 0
own_window yes
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type normal
own_window_hints undecorated,above,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager
own_window_colour white
double_buffer yes
draw_shades no
draw_outline no
draw_borders no
draw_graph_borders no
default_color white
alignment tl
maximum_width 1400
minimum_size 1400 0
gap_x 0
gap_y 0
no_buffers yes
uppercase no
cpu_avg_samples 2
override_utf8_locale no
color1 ff0000
color2 ff8000
color3 ffff00
color4 80ff00
color5 00ff00
color6 00ff80
color7 00ffff
