Fences 3 missing "Show titlebar buttons on Fences on mouseover"

Hey Devs and Stardock Team,

i tried Fences 3 when it came out but reverted immediately back to Fences 2 because of the missing "Show titlebar buttons on Fences on mouseover" option.

Recently i looked at it again but sadly the option is still not in! For me this is a very important aesthetic thing, if you use a single column fence and mouse over and the caption text will turn into "..." because of the buttons appearing. Also icons/buttons appearing and disappearing on the desktop makes it unsettled in my opinion.

Hope you can re-add this option to Fences 3 :)

I'll second that, I have immediately regreted my upgrade.. what a shame to remove the feature that actually matters.

I'll third it. I upgraded but went back to version 2 because of the inability to hide the titlebar buttons.

Please add this feature back in a future version.

Hello,

Do you have the latest version? It work just fine on my system.

Thank you,

Note that in your screenshot the titlebar icons (three horizontal lines and an X at the top of the fence) are displayed when the mouse enters the fence. In version 2 there was an option to disable that from happening so those icons were never displayed. The following screenshot shows that option in v2.
