If you're eager to get your hands on the latest version, the update is currently being rolled out and can be manually checked for by accessing the Fences 4 configuration panel. Simply navigate to "About" and select "Check for Updates."

With this update, one of the notable changes is the faster startup time for Fences 4, making it more efficient and responsive when you use it. Moreover, we've made improvements to the scrollbar within fences, which should result in a smoother and more seamless experience while navigating.

I really like Fences, and am a full Stardock subscriber. About the only thing that I'd like to see in a future version of Fences is the ability to make more granular movements with a fence. I like to move my fences to the top of the screen, and if you 'overshoot', the titlebar switches down to the bottom of the fence, and you have to monkey around with it moving left and right to dislodge it and get it back up top.

I'd really LOVE the ability to use the arrow keys (left/right/up/down) to move a fence a couple or three or five pixels at a time.  This would make life so much easier and more friendly.

TY
