Fences 3.07 beta available for registered users and Object Desktop customers

January 16, 2018 12:56:29 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Fences 3.07.5 beta is now available from https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products/ for registered users and Object Desktop customers. 

This version adds localization support for Dutch, French, German, and Polish (in addition to the existing Simplified Chinese support). 

There are also performance optimizations for people running with a large number of icons on their desktop.

I can notice only a very slight improvement, but it's still laggy to me (especially the "double click to hide" function, you call it Quick-hide but it's not quick here).

The "test A" version was a lot better than this beta under all aspects. Please try again.

With multiple monitors why does this force all new icons on the desktop to another monitor that isn't the Windows primary. When I uninstall Fences it works fine, minus not having fences.

Fences IS causing all new icons to go to a monitor other than the windows primary monitor.

Fences IS placing icons on top of other icons when not in a fence. If I download a file to the desktop it will place itself on top of another icon/file and I have to select the "top" one and move it to another location.

I installed this on my Win 8.1 and I keep getting a pop up from the BsSndRpt.exe from Fences program folder. It's making my explorer crash. It won't let me change it or delete it (the file). On Win 10 it's in the folder but it's not popping up.

Explorer still crashed upon Win-D (or other "show desktop" methods with this new version.

It is very sad that Stardock does not fix this problem for months and only offers refunds or asks customers to clean reinstall Fences.

Im running 3.0.5.12 and for some reason new files get placed on my second monitor sometimes
Example left monitor is set as 1 while the right one is set to 2.
Sometimes new files dropped to the desktop will get placed correctly ( on the very left side of monitor 1 )
And sometimes they will get placed on the secondary monitor. I hate it when that happens
Is there any fix for that?

I had to go back to 3.0.5.12 on my computers because the Bug Splat program keeps popping up. Besides that it works excellent.

Seems I'm the only one having problems with Bug Splat on 2 different computers, 1 with 8.1 and the other with 10.
