Feature Request: Multi-Monitor or Multi-Desktop support

Ability plug your laptop into a Monitor

from Stardock Forums

Hello, I am a long time user of Stardock software (more than a decade), but I think this is my first true feature request.  Hopefully, this makes sense.

I travel with a laptop, but when I'm home I dock it and use an eternal monitor and keyboard. I believe this to be a fairly common use case.  What I would like is for Fences to remember its configuration and adapt to both modes. When I undock, Fences adapts pretty well.  The change in resolution of the laptop seems to work ok.  The Fences take up the same relative position and size. The problem is when I redock to the desktop monitor, everything goes wonkey. While the Fences do transfer back to the main monitor they are 4x the original size and I have to readjust them every time.

Please, give us the ability to plug in monitors and have Fences remember its config and be able to scale appropriately.

Thank you,

Jim

Hello,

We have forwarded your report/suggestion to our Development Team for their review and recommendations.

I cannot, however, provide a timeline for a response or resolution. You will be notified when one is available.

We really do appreciate your feedback, thanks.

Have you checked the options thoroughly?  I dock with different monitors and I seem to be doing okay with the option I have selected (shown the graphic below).  Full disclosure -- my resolution isn't vastly different on my monitors like they are on yours.

I would test out each of those three settings provided.
