Thank you SOOOO much, Stardock. I had a long list of productive activities to accomplish today. Then I stumbled across Fences. It's now half past six in the evening and I'm still playing with it, having gotten NOTHING useful done. [/rant]
Unfortunately (and this is partly Fences' falt) my desktop overfloweth with icons, leading to my own suggestions.
1. Resizeable icons -- from large to "Tiny. Really tiny."
2. Set icon spacing.
3. Allowing setting a different color for each field, the way ObjectDock Plus does for tabs.
4. Field-zooming on mouse hover.
So I could have a desktop covered with a dozen or two fences, circumscribing a hundred or two mini-icons. Each field is uniquely colored -- the yellow fence is Apps; green fence over there is Games -- and fences zoom in on mouse hover so I can see and access individual icons.
Yeah, I know. Fences is really just an icon-pusher, that programatically moves icons around on the desktop, meaning most of the above lies outside its scope. But a guy can dream, right?
