I wish....I had been invited into the beta.... ....pretty sure I put in my email address.....

Be careful what you wish for ......

Here's my little list:

1) The fences snap to the bottom and top of my screen, but not the sides. That would be useful.

2) Custom fence background textures.

3) A prettier scrollbar, I don't know if this is just me, but I'm just getting the classic windows scrollbar.

Tell you what though, my 130ish icons are looking a lot better now...

I'm right there with you

thomassen started a thread (prob didn't know of this one), in short a "roll up feature". Just thought I'd be 'lumper' in this case.

Some good ideas here, fellas! Keep up the good work. We might even get an OS out of it if we can get OD+ and Right Click into it too!

oh lord.. run

is "skinnability" a word?.. well if not, I'm making it one.

My wish is to be able to do more to skin fences than just mess with color and transparency. my windowblinds right now govern the scroll bars, which is great, but I think it would be fun to have the option to create split rail,chain link,wrought iron, electric fences occasionally.

not being able to do that, it would be nice if the "skin" of the fence would correspond to the windowblind or compliment it better.

I wish that there's be a hotkey option that would bring all icons and fences float on top of all windows. Like you can do with DesktoppX gadgets. I made a desktop shortcut theme in DX which I found the F10 key very nice to bring the shortcuts infront. Allowed me access to the desktop without minizing or hiding windows.

Also: being able to spesify the label font + size.

The second beta has been great. The first one was a bit too unstable to work on my messed up laptop but I have had no problems at all with beta 2.

The default fences are great. The recent items fence would be fun if that one was auto updated by what was actually recently used as time goes on.

Skinability would be nice but I worry over performance of that. If skins were just too much of a load, I'd like to be able to assign colors/transparency seperately to title bar, border, scrollbar, and background. Tinting each fence seperately would be nice.

Then there's stuff I'd like to see stolen from EverQuest II. Define the mouse over and mouse out transparency of all the items individually ( border, title, icons, fence background, etc... ). Icon Size/Icon spacing per fence would be a nice theft as well. Lock a each fence location individually. Lock a each dock icon contents. Go find an EQII player and ask them if you can play with thier back pack display settings.

Now for the fun ones. I would love to see different 'view as' options in each fence. Thumbnail, filmstrip, details (with sorting). Arrange icons by whatever in each fence would be great.

Keep up the great work!

I would like to see Fences.exe respond to command line parameters, then it could easily be activated from a shortcut on the desktop, or more easily integrated within right click, objectbar whatever.

Wish list:

Fences wrangles shortcuts/icons.  I wish Fences wrangled windows.  My desktop usually has 3 explorer windows open (pointing to 3 file/folder locations) and an IRC client.  This is before I start running apps like office, Firefox, etc.

I would like to be able to min/max/move/resize opened windows like the Explorer and IRC client windows - but bounded by the Fences panels I would setup to contain each of those apps/windows.

ability to tune the spacing between icons (or is it possible already) there's too much space for my taste
