"Show titlebar buttons on fences on mouseover" removed in Fences 3?

from Stardock Forums

HI,

 

i'm considering buying Fences 3 (had 22 days left  today on my Fences 2 trial) but i'm wondering why the feature "Show titlebar buttons on fences on mouseover" isn't implemented in Fences 3 anymore?! Or did i miss anything? 

Feature in Fences 2 : 

I was so happy that i found that feature when i installed Fences 2 trial a couple of days ago but now i'm very disappointed that Fences 3 doesn't support this little nice feature. What happened? Will this feature be implemented again in a future update?

The feature may return.

Because of the Portal navigation feature we needed the icons to be there at all times.  We are evaluating how to maintain a clean desktop while balancing navigation.

Thanks for the feedback though.

Thank you for your answer. 

Just a  small suggestion : That option could set the (button)icon invisisble but leave the button clickable. So the button is invisible but the functionality/navigation (left/right mouseclick) will be fully maintained. This would be a nice and even better solution than in Fences 2 in my opinion.

 

It would be very nice if that feature may return.

Thanks so far and regards

I've reverted back to Version 2 because this feature has been removed !!!    If you have a tall fence only 1 icon wide (of which I have many), then rolling mouse over makes the title disappear so it can fit in the menu bar.  I don't like it at all. 

 

Please add this feature back in version 3 !!
