Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Are you referring to icons within the Fences or outside the Fences and on General Desktop area? If within the Fences area, there is, currently, no option to not auto-arrange Icons to top-left. But, if you're referring to icons outside Fences, you should be able to so, by turning off Windows Desktop auto-arrange icons setting. It should stay in your specify location, unless that location under a Fence. Than, Fences will push that icon away.
Thank you.
