toggle does not work correctly

[pauljohn32]

I want the xfce4 panels on top, sometimes, otherwise I don't. toggle used do do that, now it does not.

I show here I can explicitly run "add,below" or "add,above" to get what I want, but toggle has no effect. This usage did work at one time. Am I doing this incorrectly.

I check the existing objects

pauljohn@dellap7:bin$ wmctrl -l
0x03000001 0 dellap7 mlterm
0x02e00001 0 dellap7 mlterm

## Note no toggling going on there
## Now will manually force panel to bottom

It would be handy if you could either fix wmctrl to work or tell me how to use it differently! The toggle makes it easy in a shell script to raise and lower the panels.
