Fences 6, conflict with Roll Up and Static fence

Hi,

I upgraded fence from 4.0 to 6.0 last month and the Issue which I will show you never happened before.

I have some Roll Up fence and one static fence for temporary/download files.

When i open the Roll Up fence the icons goes over the Static Fence and all is fine.

Unfortunately, some Icons of the opened Roll Up Fence can't be selected and when i Double Click, the file below on the Static Fence is opened instead.

What can I do to solve the problem ?

Thank you.

I think my problem is the same. Basically, when I rollover a Tab in a Tab Group it unrolls over several fixed Fences. If I click in the unrolled Fence all of the fixed Fences display which disrupts use of the unrolled Fence. Made sure that transparency of unrolled fence was 0. Win 11, Fences 6.2, Chrome. All totally up-to-date.

This toally defeats the purpose of a rolled up Tab Group.

I may have inadvertantly run across a work around.
In my case the Tab Group was composed of Portal Fence tabs.
I noticed that a second Tab Group had several Portal Fence Tabs and one Desktop Fence Tab (Ie: not a Portal Tab)

The second Tab Group with the one Desktop Fence Tab does not leak the underlying Desktop Fences through.
I added a Desktop Fence Tab to the first Tab Group which was leaking the Desktop Fence Tabs through and that stopped the issue.

I have not tested any further but this may be a general workaround ie: Avoid Tab Groups consisteing of only Portal Fence Tabs.
