Any solution for jumpy chart windows on SC v.2867 on Mac/Crossover?

Each SC built since the new MIDI window adjustments made it very difficult to move chart windows in my Chartbooks. They always seem to have "invisible" snapping borders. I am on a Mac via Crossover so I thought I wait for new builds to fix the issue and so far always reverted back to v.2781. I can easily move detached windows and I can move the perimeter of the chart window to get them in place but I am wondering if there is a setting in 2867 that mitigates the issue of "jumpy" and stuck chart windows or will this be fixed in future updates?
thank you

Sorry, I don't have solution to your issues, just a bit concern about Crossover, it might not be a reliable long term solution.

I assume you are using Apple's M-series chip, Crossover failed to run natively, meaning it relies on Rosetta 2 to work, and Apple may stop supporting Rosetta 2 end of 2026 or early 2027.

I know there are Mac M-series users, running Sierra ARM on Windows 11 ARM version (with parallels), you can find discussion in Support Board.

Regarding the first post, how is this setting set:
General Settings Window: Use Outline Window Move for MDI Child Windows (Global Settings >> General Settings >> GUI >> Multiple Document Interface (MDI) and Custom Title Bar Settings)
