Bug Report / Feature Request – Fence Layouts Not Restoring Correctly

The Fence layouts do not consistently return to the desired positions.

System setup:
Dual-monitor configuration
Primary monitor: ultrawide 5120x1440, usually split into two virtual screens of 2560x1440
Secondary monitor: 1440x2560 in portrait orientation

Issue:
When switching between using the ultrawide monitor in split mode and in full mode (e.g., for watching movies), the Fence layouts fail to restore to the correct size and position.

Workaround:
I have disabled automatic backups and created several manual backups, which I renamed. This allows me to restore the layouts manually, but it is not an efficient solution.

Suggestion:
It would be helpful if restoring layouts could be made easier, for example through a quick-access menu or dedicated buttons, instead of relying on manual backups.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need to know more on your system.

  1. Windows 10 or 11? Also need its full version and OS Build number? Please use Winver.exe.
  2. Fences full version number installed?
  3. Which setting is your layout auto-adjustments selected? 

Thank you,
Basj,
