Wish list
Thursday, September 25, 2008 by ZubaZ | Discussion: Fences Beta
- Rather than not showing an icon when there is space for half an icon to show, show part of it blending out.
- Allow for a default scroll bar. Either the whole fence should be skinned or skin-support should be able to be disabled.
- This is a doozy. I get used to the groupings on my desktop and then when I have to oepn Windows Explorer for whatever reason (say to upload a file) I have my mindset on Fence groupings and lo and behold . . my files are not grouped. Hook into Explore to group by Fence.

It's definetely possible to do that, just install impulse and install... I can't say anything about if it's allowed to do though.

My post regarding this was completely ignored but I think its a great idea..
I suggested that the program either become compatible with other software which allow the user to display their icons on the desktop as a List or Tiles view (for the purpose of saving room and displaying the full path/file name), or just integrate that feature into the program itself (which should not be difficult). The problem with Icons is that they easily take up the most space out of any other view, and for people who want to make multiple fences with many shortcuts and long path names, it can probably get annoying. Especially for those with low resolution monitors, who want to get the most out of their work space, this could make their lives much easier.
To me it just sounds like common sense that people would want to make a Fence with a list view that takes up only 1/10th the space as a Fence with a icon view and the same amount of shortcuts. I tried using several of the list view programs that I downloaded with Fences and attempted to manipulate it to work as close as possible to doing what I wanted it to, but it just didn't quite cut it. I will post a screenshot of what I got it to look like when I can.

What do you think of the idea to have Fences inside folders? As my knowledge of windows tells me dekstop is a part of the explorer, so why cant we have Fences to arrange things in folder?

- ability to resize icon to smaller or bigger size, custom size for every single icon or maybe for a single fence
- decrease spaces between icons (xp always driven me crazy with it default setting)
- show full name of the file - no matter how long it is (obviously it wont be too long in 99,9%)
- maybe preview, like in linux for pdf and doc/docx files, and even other files (just imagining things)
- ability to customize fences individually
-
All in all this is great software, I like it very much. Thanks for beta invite
Just a question - can I install Fences on my girlfriends' pc, I have got only one serial. Do you think it can be done? Mine is XP, hers is Vista, it would be interesting to test it there
