Position sticky: I want sticky frame to fix on top of scrolling frames not below

When I use the new Position Sticky feature in Prototyping, the frame that sticks to the top always sits below the frames that scroll. This doesn’t make sense because the point of sticking a frame is so that it sits on top of all scrolling content.
Do I have to re-order the layers somehow? Do I have to check an extra box to make the frame sit on top of all others?

Thank you

UPDATE: I finally found it!!!
You need to set the parent frame to “First on Top” which is deeply and frustratingly hidden in the “Ellipsis” (go figure) in Auto-Layout. OMFG

Thank you I set the content I wanted to be on top to “First on Top” but I forgot to do it on the parent frame. Now it works nicely 🙂

Thanks man! Another thing I have noticed is that the positioning of the sticky scroll is limited by the height of the parent container. For example, a sticky navbar is positioned above a hero banner, with both contained inside a header. The scrolling interrupts the sticky header based on the height of the header.
