Bug Report and Feature Requests
Monday, January 19, 2009 by imadman | Discussion: Fences Beta
Just started using Fences today. Desktop looks great. Thank You!!!
Bug:
- Create a file on the desktop (not within a fence) - ex. right click, new text file.
- Double click the new icon
- Explorer.exe crashes with JIT Debugger exception.
- The desktop recovers automatically, Fences restores itself with all icons in place
- Double click the new file icon again - NO crash.
- Create another file, double click it - Crash.
- Turn off Fences, repeat above procedure - NO crash.
- Restart Fences, repeat above procedure - Crash.
Feature Request:
- Double clicking the desktop to hide fences and icons is a great idea, but I already use the double click to launch my most used program. Assigning this task to the context menu or offering alternate key/mouse combinations would be appreciated.
- Is it possible to associate fences with specific file types? Perhaps with the added functionality of automated organization - for example: If I download a PDF from the web onto my desktop, Fences would automatically funnel that file to the appropriate Fence.
Thanks again for a great program. I have been waiting years for something like this. It is so much better than drawing boxes into my wallpapers.
