[REQUEST] Bring-To-Front Hotkey

I think the usability of Fences would skyrocket if there was a "bring-to-front" hotkey implemented.  Rather than "Windows + D," which completely toggles the desktop and minimizes all windows, I'd just like to press (for instance) "Windows + F," and have only my fences (not the entire desktop) appear on the top of the screen momentarily (a-la expose style).

As soon as I double-click an icon to launch a program, the fences return to their appropriate location at the bottom of the desktop.

Please let me know if this feature already exists, and I will promptly smack myself for doing everything the hard way for so long.

I absolutely agree with this feature request. I'd pay good money for this feature. Right now I keep my windows just a little narrower than the width of the screen so I can still access the icons/fences in that strip on the desktop. That's pretty silly, but it's the best I can figure right now.

 

+1 for this feature!

I found this post via google.

 

After recently installing Fences this is an absolutely excellent suggestion and I am surprised this is not implemented yet as is seems so obvious.

 

What is the current situation regarding this?
