It would be great to be able to use file viewers, like QuickLook or Seer Pro, to preview files stored in Fences. These programs make use of the space bar to launch a preview of the selected file, much like Preview on macOS. If this is already possible, I'm missing something because I can't figure out how to do it. Thanks!

Also, since I upgraded Windows 10.1803 to 10.1809 Fences have new bug - dark mode affects Fences label text color.

It forces to black no matter of dark or light mode - I must manually update color settings.

This needs to be fixed.

I think my wishes have mostly all been mentioned.

But there are a few things I'd really want to emphasize:

1) The roll- up fences are such a bliss. My desktop is clean like a babys butt. The left- to right and vice- versa would really make the roll- ups complete.

2) Sometimes, after some weird errors, I still get a error message with a language that looks to me like chzech or polish or something. Please fix that and make one fences stable and uniform. Not sometimes german, sometimes english, sometimes chzech (or whatever).

3) The auto- arrange option is working quite well for me. But there should be things like weblinks, steam- links, certain data- types etc.

4) Make the menu and context menu uniform and not splattered all over the place. In context- menu: Make a divider which is showing all fences- options. The menu of fences itself should also be more uniform in that it has not as much "links" to wherever and is solid one language, better arranged.

Other than that, I think all other things I'd like to see were mentioned already.

Only one thing remains, though:

Make fixing all bugs before top priority, please. Dont do half baked stuff. Fences was always a bit half- baked but still was a functioning piece of gold. But if you could really make a solid one this time, I'd be very happy. Please also note that many people still use Win7.

Thats what I had to say.

Thank you for this beautiful program which totally changed my productivity and way I use my PC.

Compatibility with "Wallpaper Engine" would be a nice thing to have. this is what i see with fences and wallpaper engine active https://pasteboard.co/I7L7Tt9.png

i would like to see the backgrounds from wallpaper engine, rather than the default background if its possible

PRECISION SIZING AND POSITIONING

Consider allowing precision sizing and positioning using cursor keys.
Perhaps while holding a mouse click on the Title Bar.
A real plus would be to show the coordinates of the screen position while it is being moved and have them available for future viewing in the upper left information dropdown.

The ability to stack hidden fences on top of eachother and to open them without them overlapping eachother

Would be a good idea to roll up/down a fence with a single click instead of a double click

I think some of this is covered, but if I could get something like below, it would be awesome:

I will try to explain. 

This is a company customized file organization system that would sit on all employees desktop giving them a hyperlink to controlled documents in a pictorial fashion. Perhaps (GUI) but when I search for that I get many other things. I just want to display my files to my employees on their desktop so they can always see the latest and greatest and not change them.

What I am struggling with in Fences is the ability to lock files inside the fence, to place them in a vertical orientation and to do a fence inside a fence and lock others out from making changes. Perhaps this is not the best application, but a new application. Any advice if this is not a fences topic is greatly appreciated.

In the picture below, I hope to show the following:

1. Dark borders would be fences. therefore, a total of 69 fences.

2. Blue would be fences that would be a either a title or a single file.

3. The grid would be fences of hyperlinked files with unique file names, etc....

4. Ability to customize with company logo within the outside fence.

5. This could be done with ICONS or lists.

Also - nice feature can be to allow select as folder portal "This computer"
I'm using Fences very often like Explorer replacement.

I'm using 3 desktops and to avoid disorder Fences moving after any crash I'm using layout snapping.

Only one thing cannot avoid - since dark theme exists labels are at start or Explorer crash black! This need to fix, it is challenge to doing it always manually.

• Double click for rollup fences expanding is great idea.

Adding the features on this post would be very useful  https://forums.stardock.com/495352/page/1/#3751969

Hi!

Useful feature can be to have Fences tabbed.

Simply switching between fences created this way by click on tab.

Miro

I haven't seen this request, but I don't think I'll be buying Fences without it!

Objects with long filenames are ugly and confusing when displayed below a large icon on the Desktop (and currently in Fences). Fences is a great opportunity to solve this problem, but it has not done so.

I would like to see a 'list view' added to normal Fences (as opposed to Folder Portals, which already have a list view), so you can see a small icon and the full names of the objects/files beside them. You could also order them either alphabetically, or a custom order by dragging. This would mimic, for instance, the drop-down bookmark lists in Chrome.

The reason I don't want to use Portals for this is:

· The items in a Folder Portal can't be custom ordered.
· I would need to maintain a real folder full of the items, shortcuts and links somewhere, which diminishes the point of using Fences. I would rather just keep the actual items in a Fence on the Desktop, rather than displaying a mirror of items that have to be organised and maintained elsewhere.

EDIT: I just discovered that Folder Portals need to have the 'refresh' button clicked, so it's not a live mirroring of the folder. That drastically reduces their usefulness. IMO the contents of the Portals needs to be updated automatically for this feature to be useful. 

Thanks!
