Transparent Fences show different background picture through them than the monitor with the fence

from Stardock Forums

I have Fences on my 'main' screen.  All three monitors are showing a different background picture on each per the regular Windows 10 background slideshow.  My Fences are transparent enough so that I can see a blurred desktop picture bleeding through.  The problem is that this bleed-through is from a different picture on a different screen than the background picture on the screen the Fence is actually on.

YES! Got the same issue. Using three monitors, fence on first screen (portrait) blurs the content from the second screen (landscape), the main.

With the latest version of Fences 3.0.9.11, and only being able to test on a two monitor system atm, I don't see that with or without Translucent Fences on:

You are not using any multiple monitor software are you (Ultimon, Actual Multiple Monitors, Nvidia Surround, WallPaper Engine, etc)?  If not, perhaps a purge and reinstall is in order:

I made three big fences, one for each screen:

I'm using DisplayFusion to generate the wallpaper to show 'seamless' across the three screens and file generated, used by Windows, is here:

No sourround, just aligned the screens using nvidia panel control. Could be the display order?

Thanks!

I cant test with Display Fusion nor can we guarantee Fences will display properly with its use.

I dont know what this means:
