Dragging a fence in Windows 7 causes slow and jerky movements

I want to solve this before upgrading to Fences Pro.

September 9, 2010 6:22:20 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums
Dragging the fences in Windows 7 (32 bit), 4 GB RAM, dual monitors using Display Fusion to manage dual setup is very jerky.
 
The fences move in a jerky fashion and lag behind the cursor and continue moving after the cursor has stopped.  While the fences are moving, a single  vertical row of icons on the desktop (but not in any fence)
oscillate  horizontally  with an amplitude of about 1/3 and icon width.
 
This does not happen on an Windows XP S3 system which is also dual monitor and running Display Fusion.
If I could solve this problem, I would like to upgrade to Fences Pro.  However the problem makes Fences currently almost unusable.
Has anyone seen this problem before?
Does anyone have a work-around for it?
Thanks!

I strongly believe that this is fixed for the next update No scheduled date for it, but, we are aware of the problem, and assuming its the same one we were experiencing the problem should be gone

I purchased Fences Pro, but was not aware of this issue on windows 7. Will there be a fix? I am running version 1.01.4956

hey, there's another post about this here: https://forums.stardock.com/368522

if it is fixed, I'd certainly be willing to beta test it (if that would be an option)

I'm running the latest 1.0.1 version (checked today using impulse) and I get lag in the order of five or more seconds when dragging a fence. It's so bad re-arrangement is almost unusable.

Try uninstalling and reinstalling Fences.  This issue was on our test and fix list.  We believe it is fixed.  If not, please send over your system specifications.
