Would love an option for fences to be fully 'on top' when opened

from Stardock Forums

I am fairly new to Fences, so maybe there is an option for this, but I cannot find it if so. I initially created several fences, set them to roll up, and placed them across the top of my monitor, which was fine as far as clearing my desktop. But then I discovered that if other windows were active below the Fence title, when I opened a fence it was all or partially hidden behind the currently active windows.

Would be a great option to bring the open fence to the foreground when opening it.

For now, since I have a fairly large monitor, I have moved all my fences to the left side, one above the other, restricted the Fence windows to 3 ICONs, and make sure that none of my app windows overlap the opened Fences, and that works better. but is not ideal.

Otherwise I am enjoying the product, and feel like it was a good purchase.

Hello,
If you on Fences V4 there is an option under "hotkeys" where you can set keys to bring Fences up front. From what I understand, Fences work on desktop level, it don't work like Docks which can appear in-front of a windows. Fences need user input to bring it upfront.

Thanks
