In DM mode I cant seem to be able to lock the dice in place?
Everytime I pick them up and throw they move a bit around so I have to klick "arrange dice" again and again, is there any way to simply hold them in place? I am pretty sure I missed this option somewhere...

You could setup macros to handle the dice instead of flinging them if you didn't want them to move. Just drag a die down to a hotbar and release it then you can click the button or press the F# key to roll that die without them moving.

Or Ctrl-F#, or shift-F#, or Ctrl-shift-F# :)

Let's not forget Alt-F#, Alt-Shift-F#, Alt-Ctrl-F#, or Alt-Ctrl-Shift-F#.

I read this and thought, I haven't ever noticed this and then I have a go and sure enough they do move. Then I thought why have I never noticed this before and then I realised that I almost never use the dice from the dice bar. Usually when you are rolling dice as a GM it's for NPC attacks, damage etc or forcing saving throws from NPC or spell effects or it's making a skill or ability check. All of these are rolled from the NPC sheet, the party sheet or from the Combat Tracker. So, I'm wondering why are you needing to use the dice bar so often?

Because rolling dice is fun? :)
