Application Name: Fences
Description:
Fences is a popular desktop organization software developed by Stardock. It is designed to help users better organize their cluttered desktop by creating customizable and resizable containers, or "fences," where they can group and organize their icons into logical categories. Fences provides a clean and organized desktop experience while still allowing quick access to frequently used files and applications.
Key Features:
- Desktop Fencing: Fences allows users to create virtual fenced areas on their desktop where they can place related icons. Users can drag and drop icons into these fences, automatically organizing them into neat and categorized groups.
- Automatic Sorting: When new icons are added to the desktop, Fences can automatically sort them into appropriate fences based on predefined rules or user preferences, keeping the desktop organized without manual intervention.
- Customizable Fences: Users can customize the appearance and behavior of each fence, including the fence name, color, transparency, and layout. This flexibility allows users to match their desktop organization with their personal preferences and aesthetics.
- Roll-up Fences: Fences provides a "roll-up" feature that allows users to hide the icons within a fence with a double-click. This helps reduce desktop clutter while still retaining quick access to icons.
- Desktop Pages: Fences can create multiple pages of fences, effectively providing additional desktop space without the need to extend the physical screen. Users can navigate through these pages to access different groups of icons.
- Quick-hide Desktop Icons: With a simple double-click on the desktop, users can quickly hide all desktop icons, decluttering the desktop and providing a clean background when needed.
- Snapshot and Restore Layouts: Fences allows users to take snapshots of their fence layouts. This feature is especially useful when experimenting with new configurations, as users can easily revert to previous setups if needed.
- Desktop Icon Labels and Sorting: Fences offers options to show or hide icon labels, adjust icon sizes, and set custom sorting preferences within each fence, offering further customization for a personalized desktop layout.
- Multi-monitor Support: Fences supports multi-monitor setups, allowing users to create separate fences and layouts for each monitor, enhancing desktop organization across multiple displays.
- Integration with Other Stardock Products: Fences is often part of the Stardock suite of desktop enhancement tools, enabling seamless integration with other Stardock applications like WindowBlinds and Start10.
Compatibility:
Fences is primarily designed for Windows operating systems, including Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10.
Note: The features and functionalities of Fences may have evolved or expanded since my last update in September 2021. For the latest offerings and enhancements, it's recommended to refer to the official Stardock website or the application's documentation.
