Additional Information
The controller itself follows the layout arrangement orders, but the widget panels opened from the Widget Controller widget always appear in front of all other application content, so users can always access them. It is popular to place the Widget Controller widget in the header, footer, grid, or block within a scrolling page, where it has a direct layout parent. Nonetheless, the widget panels should not be limited to the parent layout.Workaround
Do not use the sidebar layout and do not embed the widgets inside the Widget Controller widget. Instead, use the Arrange options to dictate which widgets are in front or in the back.
