Continuing the discussion from [Directory Opus 13.13](https://resource.dopus.com/t/directory-opus-13-13/54354): > [@Directory Opus 13.13](https://resource.dopus.com/t/directory-opus-13-13/54354/1): > > ### Folder Tab Drag & Drop > > - You can now drag folder tabs out of the tab bar to create new windows for them (like in a web browser), without having to drag them to the Windows desktop. > - When dragging a folder tab out to open it as a new window, the drag thumbnail now scales with DPI. > - Fix for titlebar flashing when dragging folder tabs in a dual-display window when **Move top-row toolbars into the window title bar"** is on. I think this new behaviour is a little broken / incompatible with topmost software. As soon as I grab the tab, it suggests creating a new window for it. It's no longer possible to simply move the tab inside the same window (only by returning it back from the new lister, after it was created). ![WindowTop_AJv8V8K99c](https://resource.dopus.com/uploads/default/original/3X/9/c/9c406ca2bae8ed26faa66b303b4e0e7d58ed17d0.gif) The reason for that was a running WindowTop. DOpus probably got confused with its' topmost or invisible window. Could this new drag&drop behaviour be disabled? ---

Can you link to the tool causing problems? (There seem to be a few on Google with the same name.) Which window is actually on-top above the lister? Or does that tool mean there is always something (there but not visible) covering the whole desktop? ---

Here it is: [https://windowtop.info/](https://windowtop.info/) I think WindowTop's window is used to draw the frames around other topmost windows, when there are ones. ![WindowTop - The best Window Manager productivity tool for small screens for Windows](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/V9DOaIFOxes/hqdefault.webp) ---

Many thanks. A fix will be in the next beta. ---

Sorry for bumping the thread but I've had this issue forever. I can never drag tabs between listers or even up/down in my vertical tab list, it becomes a new window. I thought it could be displayfusion or powertoys, but after disabling them and restarting the behaviour is the same. Version is 13.25.3 currently.
