Make Fences honor the 'adjust for best performance' setting in System Properties > Visual Effects

from Stardock Forums

I use Fences for productivity reasons, not for visually appealing eye candy.

Could you please have add settings within Fences that are optimized for Performance / minimal resource utilization.

I don't need to see a pretty animation of the icons drifting from my desktop to the Fence.

I don't need to see animations at all really.

 

Please add low resource/performance options - I still prefer the way Fences 2.0 worked.

 

Also, why cant I download Betas from my account? It only lists the production version.

At the moment, I'm running 3.0.5.12, and the explorer process is chewing through CPU, even when I just drag the mouse across a few fences.

Icons not in Fences get stacked on top of one another when I undock my laptop (detaching 2 other screens).

The Fences that's shows on my account page is 3.05.0 and in Fences in my About it says 3.05.3.

 

So I don't now where your getting 3.06.28. There is a thread where people are testing Fences might be the test version.

Because that is not a released beta. It is being used by our team to track down an issue. 

Any officially released beta or update is available through your account.
