I specifically registered here just to say that. I have to re-name each file/folder and move it back inside the fence.ģ2.0GB Dual-Channel Unknown 1066MHz (15-15-15-36)

Later, I create or download a file called prices.xlsx and rename it to pricesA.xlsx, hit enter, the 3 icons/files or folder ("new" "old" "customer") I clicked earlier, jump out of the fence onto the desktop and are renamed to "new" is now pricesA(1) "old" is now pricesA(2) and "customer" is now pricesA(3). I have clicked on these 3 icons for whatever reason through the day. Inside fence = file named "new", file named "old", folder named "customer". If I click on an icon in a fence to open a program or a folder, then later, create a new folder or download file to the desktop and re-name it when I hit enter the files and folders that I clicked on inside the fences will jump out of the fence onto the desktop and be named whatever the new file/folder was named. I sent a ticket and the response was "It's a known issue and is being looked into and will be fixed in the next update".
If this was a gripe for any other software, it could be considered petty, but given that this entire product's purpose is to manage icons, the lack of this option, at least in some beta offering, is unacceptable.

Not having an option to "place" an icon at a specific location inside a fence, is something unacceptable because this is a function available in stock Windows icon management, and one that many, many users use to put an icon slightly "off center" as a reminder. The entire mental purpose of Fences is to make muscle memory more efficient since icons are located at fixed points.
We have here an incongruity a product that is designed specifically for users that want to tinker deep into desktop customization, with things like automatic sorting and saving icon positions, but lacking a basic feature like disabling auto-arrange. The idea of organizing icons into "fences" is pretty great (I've been using the product for 1 year), but today I decided to disable it. This way, I can position an icon at a specific location. Ever since Win98, I've disabled "auto arrange" and "align to grid". It appears this is almost universally hated by everyone who tries the app. I want to arrange my icons in an order of MY choosing so you guys really ought to consider changing this behavior of the app. I can create a fence but I can't arrange my own icons inside the fence however I want? That's like buying a house but the Realtor gets to dictate how I arrange my furniture. Like everyone else in this thread complaining, this is absolutely ludicrous. I haven't even tested that functionality yet because I stumbled across this forum while researching on my frustration about the forced icon arrangment and was hoping there was a fix. I was told by someone that Fences stops that from happening. The reason I bought Fences is because I RDP to my computer a lot and I hate my desktop icons always rearranging.

A victim of simply buying Fences outright, based on someone's recommendation, instead of trying the 30-day trial first, so I'm at least glad it was only $10.
