Keyboard shortcut or cmd line to hide fences

from Stardock Forums

I'm hoping there is a keyboard shortcut to hide fences (like when you double-click the desktop) or even a command line switch to hide/unhide them.

 

I am setting up something that is going to enable a remote view of my desktop and while I launch that program I'd like to automate the hiding of fences when I start it and unhidning them when I end it, so eithers a keyboard shortcut I can automate with AutoHotKey or a command line switch I can automate with a .bat file would be great.

Does the business version of Fences 5 have this capability? Seems like the business version says it has more automation. I also saw this reply to another thread mentioning it might have the ability.

Also I found this old thread that mentions two arguments "/enablequickhide" and "/disablequickhide", but they don't seem to function properly anymore at least for me, so I assume they haven't been updated. They hide the fences themselves but the icons all show.
