Reply to Disappointing integration with Fences in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

I got tired of waiting for Stardock to address this, and after hours of futile research into alternatives, finally just put a period (.) as the first character in all my Fence names. Now all the Fences appear at the top of the Start10 menu. Problem solved. Not a particularly elegant solution, but it works. Now I notice that there are entries missing from a lot of Fences menu entries ... but that's another day's problem.

I have the same issue. Having Fences groups appear scattered throughout the Start Menu is better than nothing, but it would be vastly more productive to have all the Fences groups together at the top of the menu. I see this forum topic is over a year old. Could we get an update?

Reply to Fences with Nvidia in Fences Stardock Forums

That is perhaps the most unhelpful reply I have ever seen from a software support group. Nvidia video cards are hardly some exotic item used by a few isolated nerds. They are a very popular, mainstream technology. And I have seen a number of other posters complaining of the same problem - a problem which never seems to be addressed. I made my living for 40 years as a software developer, rising as high as vice president of software development in a nationally recogn

Fences with Nvidia in Fences Stardock Forums

Once again, as happens so often, Nvidia updated its drivers. Once again all my fences reverted to an old configuration and jumped from my secondary monitor to my primary monitor. This has been happening for years. And I get seriously annoyed each and every time. Seriously, guys, what's it going to take to get you to fix this damn problem?

Fences in Start 10 in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

I like having my desktop Fences appear in my Start 10 menu. I would like to be able to have them always Highlighted. It would also be nice to have the option of having them always appear at the top of the menu. Finally I'll repeat an old request - I would like to be able to find out which Fence a particular item is in. For example, if I go to Audacity in the menu, be able to determine it is in

Reply to Fences 3.1 suggestions in Fences Stardock Forums

re: 4. Have Fences generate and maintain a Menu matching the arrangement of fences so you have an alternate way to launch programs. Assume you have two Fences -- MS OFFICE, containing WORD and EXCEL and UTILITIES, containing NOTEPAD and 7ZIP. Obviously, Fences knows the names of the Fences and the their content. What I suggest is to have Fences generate a regular Menu similar to the Windows Start Menu, containing the f

Fences 3.1 suggestions in Fences Stardock Forums

1. Option to not unroll a Fence on mouseover, or at least delay it. I'd just like to be able to stack all my rolled up Fences on the side of the screen, and drag them out in the middle of the screen when I need them without them unfurling immediately. Perhaps just an option to open them manually with the mouse instead of automatically when you touch them. 2. Some kind of utility to find out what fence an item is in ... some program icons could belong in several categor

Reply to Unable to minimise a fence in Fences Stardock Forums

What I would like is to reduce each fence to just the title ... the smallest you can get is the title and one icon. And I would like a container with a "shelf" to hold each of the titles, so I could drag out the fence I want, and then pack it away when I'm done. Yes, it sounds a lot like a menu, but it's what I'd like.
