Fences is a program that helps you organize your desktop. Place icons into moveable groups called “fences” and hide icons when they are not in use.

FEATURES YOU ALREADY LOVE

Fence off Your Desktop

Create shaded areas called “fences” on your desktop in which you can place and organize icons.

Automatically Arrange Your Desktop

Define rules for where your icons are placed and how they are arranged. When a new icon gets added, from an installer for instance, it will be automatically added to your preferred fence.

Keep Your Desktop Clean

Double-click blank space on your desktop and all of your icons will fade out. Double-click again and they will return.

NEW FEATURES

Make Your Desktop a Portal to Your Files

Expose folders containing documents or pictures onto your desktop in fenced areas making them easy to access.

Multiple Desktop Pages

You can now have multiple pages of fences on your desktop. To flip a page, just take your mouse cursor to the edge of your screen and click and drag a new page of fences onto your desktop.

Customize Appearance

Fences 2.0 BETA brings additional customization options for controlling per fences views, custom scroll bars and labels.

Another thing to look into... when you use the 'Hide Details Header' option, it may not persist across reboot.  The box is checked, but just now there I had to uncheck and recheck to get it to work.

@ MarvinKosh. You may want to post in the Fences 2 Beta Bug Report thread. That explorer background issue has been noted, but one more report of it won't hurt.

Which option is this?  Can you post a  screenshot of the config?
