Align Icons to Grid - Inside a Fence

from Stardock Forums

On Windows OS, you can right-click, select View, then Align Icons to Grid. 

 

However, inside Fences you cannot. Meaning, they organize based on whatever settings you have selected, within the settings, but there currently is no way to align a icon to anywhere you want, within the fence itself. 

 

Example, if I wanted Google Chrome on the bottom right hand corner of the fence, then top right corner is Recycling Bin, etc. I cannot do it, because Fences auto sorts. 

 

Any ideas?

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Yes currently Fences does not allow those icons to be put anywhere. It will always align to top left of the fences. There were few feature request put in by others to allow icons be set anywhere. But, I can't tell you if and when that will be implemented.

Thanks

Maybe some users requests will be adopted, within the next 50 years?

I bought the version 4 of the software, only to see nothing is changed from version 3 (apart from some aesthetic improvement in settings gui). No new features, no improvements in user experience, no new options nor controls. So, if you need money, you can just release version 5 as it is. This software has big potential, but seems its development is abandoned (apart from version index).
