Layering Doesn't Work

I have the newest WB 5 Beta release and am having a couple of issues with the transparency effects. I am using the Arrow (no shadow) skin which has a transparant border around windows.

The problem is that this border goes underneath desktopX objects that I have set to be at the desktop level. The objects are behind the window after the border, but the thin transparant border is underneath the object. I can send screenshots of this if it is not clear. Thanks.

Please let me know if this issue has been addressed before and if there is a solution for it already of if one is in the works.

We are aware of this issue. It is actually a problem on Microsoft's end.  Since it's intermittently occuring, it's harder for us to track the problem. We do hope to have a fix for this in future releases.
