Fences 2.0

from Stardock Forums

Is there a way to exempt an icon from fences' quick hide in version 2.0? I found that a very useful feature in prior versions but was unable to find it in the beta version.

There is a tooltip that tells how, but it isn't working.

If you right click on the icon, there should be a menu item that says "Exclude this icon from fences' quick hide", but it seems to be inconsistent.  Sometimes it shows for an icon, sometimes it doesn't.

Dan, you sure you are seeing it in Fences 2.0 beta?

Yes, it is in 2.0 Beta.

 

Like mentioned above, Right Click on the icon and pick "Exclude this icon from Fences' quick hide".

 

Works like a charm!

It seems to vary from icon to icon. For example in my "Games" fence...

Games.txt (some assorted notes of mine) = works

Warlock: Master of the Arcane (steam-link) = works

Steam = doesn't work

Skyrim = works

Fallen Enchantress = doesn't work

Looking at properties of each, it seems that shortcuts are what do not work with this feature. Although I guess it could be some other reason, and I just don't have a big enough sample size.
