How about an option for roll-ups to appear in front of windows?

I can have a lot of stuff on my Windows desktop. When I need to get to a Fence it rolls-up underneath all programs and whatnot I have open. Having it appear over other items would be wonderful.

Fences is a coralling system for Icons which are part of the Desktop and by Microsoft's design are intended to stay at that level [Z-Order].

Windows are designed/intended to be above the desktop and/or above each other as when focus is changed [again Z-order].

Fences is not designed [nor can it be] to alter the layering of Microsoft's GUI.  Other Launchers are designed for that, and in Stardock's case specifically  ObjectDock which can and does pop-over both the Desktop AND open Windows.

It is safe to say that Fences will never have an option to alter the z-order of the Microsoft GUI [though as soon as you say that anything can happen].

Confidence. N. That feeling you have immediately before you fully understand the situation...

 

 

PS....would I like it as an option?   Yes...
