Multi desktop unique apps per page

How to?

from Stardock Forums

Hi,

Is there a way to get Fences to have unique applications open on each desktop page? Not just unique icons?

EG. I want to have chrome open on page 1 and firefox open on page 2, and VisualStudio open on page 3.

Version: 3.0.5.12

There is not a way in the current build.

Interesting request.

The windows 10 built in multi desktop allows different apps on each screen but not icons. Both would be ideal.

The only one I know of being capable of doing this since 2006 is Linux.

Found an odd way to enable this, it works...

  1. Right click start bar
  2. Enable "show task view button"
  3. Click it
  4. Add new desktop

Now you can use windows 10s virtual desktops as well as having fences virtual desktop on each of them. So you can have windows 10 desktops to LWin + Tab between for app switching and ALT+L or R for Fences desktop icons switching.
