Fences - Can't have dual screen backgrounds

from Stardock Forums

fences is pretty cool. but... i have been using DisplayFusion (on win XP with an nVidia 8800GT card) to allow either seperate backgrounds on both my monitors, or one background to span both monitors. but after installing Fences, the background from the primary screen is copied to the secondary screen. i am not able to change this using DisplayFusion as i did before. is this correct behaviour for fences, or is it a bug??? thanks.

I'm having the same problem, except I'm using UltraMon to enable separate backgrounds on each monitor. At least it's not just me (or you).

It's a known issue and being looked at.  Thabnks for reporting it.

Is there a fix yet?

I just installed fences and dual screen wallpaper (done with ultramon) is not working anymore.

I'm using UltraMon, but I'm not using dual screen wallpaper and yet fences isn't working.  I don't get an error, I just can't create a fence area anywhere on my desktop.

Count me among those wondering if there is a fix yet.  Looking at putting a second monitor on my machine, and I'd haaaaaaate to have to quit using Fences.

We do not have a fix yet, I will look into this issue with the developers.

Hi,

Update, this is only an issue for Windows XP users.  If you are running Windows Vista or 7 this will not be an issue for you.  As a result we will not be fixing this for Windows XP.
