I like to position my fences, starting at the top of the screen; but every time I drag a fence to the top, the fence title jumps to the bottom - not what I want to do.
How can I disable the option to automatically reposition the fence title bar?
Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues.
right click on your desktop to view and drop down and un check lock fences if it is checked .
see if that works for you .

I am pretty sure he means that he want's the label to remain at the top of the fence even when the fence is at the top edge. I don't see how unlocking fences will help, and they are probably not locked anyways.
Instead of
he wants
Hello,
Yes if that is the case the Title will remain on the bottom when at top edge
no option I know of at this time to change that .
I can however forward to be a future Fences Feature change .

Personally I am not too bothered with that, though I can see some people wanting otherwise (like the OP). Adding that option to the Fences Configuration seems like a reasonable request, and probably not too hard to implement, as it should just be an addition of an IF statement (though what do I know)
All I had to do was this, and it solved the problem:
Click the cursor inside the title bar that's on the bottom and then shove it upward ever so slightly. The title bar then jumps to the top. This works as long as the Fence is not touching the very top of the computer's screen. As soon as you shove the Fence to the very top of the screen, the title bar will jump to the bottom again.
I too agree this would be a handy feature. Option to force the title bar always to the top.
Please add this as an option to Fences. I hate having the gap at the top and trying to move the fenced window just right so it is near the top and still have the title bar at the top is a pain. This is a common request.

This has been an annoyance and a request to be fixed since FENCE v1.0
We're at Fence v4 now and it appear they don't intend to fix this annoyance.
I would also like my "Fence Title bar" to remain on Top of the windows.
There is no way to do it. If we move the fence and get too close of border, the Fence title bar go to bottom.
It's extremely annoying especially since it's a "feature" and a feature is normally "Easy" to fix.
Just add something like
IF (OptionBorderCanMove) {
//previous code to move border
}
And a Check box in setting to allow user to Set OptionBorderCanMove to FALSE
The jumps of the title bar are very annoying indeed.
Now I can't move my fences closer than 0.5 cm from the top of my screen to keep the titlebar at the top of the fence.
Please fix this or make the jumping optional!
Edit: I've discovered it happened because the fences are set to snap. Holding shift while dragging, allows you to move the fences closer to the edge of the screen without the titlebar jumping.
Can't believe that they still haven't added the option to stop the title bar from jumping to the bottom. I'm starting to regret that I bought the upgrade.
i don't see the problem with implementing a simple feature that people have been requesting for a long time. why jump through hoops when its a simple request.
cant be that hard. the code to make it move to the bottom is for sure more lines of code than just implementing something simple like the following.
