Keyboard shortcut or cmd line to hide fences

I'm hoping there is a keyboard shortcut to hide fences (like when you double-click the desktop) or even a command line switch to hide/unhide them.

I am setting up something that is going to enable a remote view of my desktop and while I launch that program I'd like to automate the hiding of fences when I start it and unhidning them when I end it, so eithers a keyboard shortcut I can automate with AutoHotKey or a command line switch I can automate with a .bat file would be great.

Does the business version of Fences 5 have this capability? Seems like the business version says it has more automation. I also saw this reply to another thread mentioning it might have the ability.

Also I found this old thread that mentions two arguments "/enablequickhide" and "/disablequickhide", but they don't seem to function properly anymore at least for me, so I assume they haven't been updated. They hide the fences themselves but the icons all show.

We've received confirmation from our developer that it does not. However, we appreciate the feedback from everyone in this thread, and I've logged the requested feature internally.
