Fences works by allowing users to “draw” labeled shaded areas on the desktop, which become movable & resizable containers for any desktop icon. These groups can help bring organization and consistency to your computer's desktop, solving the "constant mess" problem that has plagued the desktop since its inception. Fences also helps users finally appreciate the wallpaper hiding behind a cluttered desktop.

In addition to its organizing features, Fences offers a quick-hide feature: Double click your desktop, and all your icons will fade out. Double click again, and they'll return.

More info, screenshots, and videos can be found here.

The price!!!

I think they finally realised it's stable

Just updated from the beta to the 1.0 version via the standalone installer. I can't move my Fences. (I can't click and drag the titlebars - it just selects icons like native Windows). My Fences were locked on the Beta version.

You could try locking and then unlocking them, or reloading the app

Still freeware!

Been using beta for months on my windows machine and cannot find a difference between them.

Thanks Island Dog. Good to know that it's still a freeware!

Well, at least you don't have to download a certain awkward program to install fences now

There are no major new features, mostly compatibility fixes and performance updates with the full release.

Fences will always be free, but a Plus version is coming soon with added features.

Not familiar with any "awkward" applications.
