Fences 2 beta demo video

Wednesday, June 6, 2012 by Frogboy | Discussion: Personal Computing

This is my first shot at demoing Fences.  It also gives you an idea of just how compelling the new features are.

The advantages of two screens on one. Finally get my shops organized. Pictures and files too. Excellent.

Loving the idea of 'pages'. I'm also using xWidget which also have 'pages'.

But how will Fences' 'pages' work on a multi monitor setup?

I have Fences spread two different monitors (xWidget on a third).

WOW !! Can't wait ! This is going to be so handy when working on my skinning projects , won't have to click a zillion times to get to a particular folder or app.                 --- Ace ---

I use Fences on multiple monitors. You can drag fences between them freely and move pages between them. Think of it like a book.

Blends a Tiles feature there too. Well done.

Will it be possible to set the 'pages' to up/down the monitor instead of left/right?

I have a bunch of (OD+) docks set as drawers at the right of my screen which is going to make left/right movement a bit tricky...

Oh . .I don't think you'll have any issues considering  all the different ways to switch "pages"

I love the "Pages" idea too. I am really looking forward to the Beta2. I have been using Fences since the very first Beta:

https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/screenshots/23667/

and I could not imagine having a computer without Fences.

I repair - rebuild (and the sort) a lot of computers. I always add Fences for everyone. Those that knew nothing about Fences love the program. Those that I had previously introduced Fences to insist that I install it again. Several college students have told me that it really helps them stay organized with their classes and studies. Of course this interaction gives me the opportunity to introduce Stardock and all of its other wonderful products.

I am really enjoying FX5 too.

Looking good.  The file view is something that's been sorely needed.  No more drilling to places you've already drilled to before a dozen times with Windows Explorer!

Now, got a burning question. How will it perform on a notebook like the Samsung N150 Plus?
