[Solved] Fences resizes when switching resolution and then back again.

December 31, 2015 12:23:28 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I'm using the latest version of Fences 2.13 and right now my resolution is 5760x1200 however I sometimes switch my output to my home theatre so I can game on a 1920x1080 resolution screen. When I switch to the TV and then back to my monitors fences do not retain their original shape and they are resized. 

Is there any way to have a custom fences shape/area for different resolutions? Is there any way to set this statically?

Hi,

I have the same issue.

When I switch from my 24" desktop display to my built-in laptop display, desktop icons fit no longer properly to fences.

*EDITED - Please link to pictures in the future - Admin*

But when I switch back to the 24" display, fences display is correct again.

Is Fences able to switch from one resolution to another one resizing fences and icons properly.

Or is there a way to save 2 different icons/fences arrangements I can select according to the used resolution?

Thanks.

Joel.

Hi guys,

I found out the solution to manage several résolutions.

In Fences configuration menu, you can change stteings for layout and snapshot management.

Default setting is "Preserve my desktop layout by scaling my Fences".

If you switch to the yellow highlighted option as below, it works much better.

 

 

Hope this will work for you too.

Regards.

Joel.
