Fences 2.12 Beta Available

The Fences 2.12 Beta is now available for current customers and subscribers to Object Desktop.

This beta brings various fixes and improvements:

Fixed issue with config UI blanking out
Fixed issue with Fences not showing on desktop when they existed offscreen, out of the screen resolution
Fixed issue with new files defaulting to the second monitor
Fixed issue with the show desktop button in Windows when an active modal window was displaying in Fences
Fixed issue with being unable to drag desktop pages when the taskbar was on the left or right
Fixed issue with excluding icons from quickhide (like .website)
Fixed issue when folder portal opacity was set to 0%
Fixed where rules weren't sticking if assigned through right-click/...
Removed Fences as a Control Panel item (kept causing problems)

Users can update from their Stardock account or via the Object Desktop Manager.

I do not see where I can update from my account. The link on the last sentence doesn't have a download link.

I installed the the Fences 2.12 Beta. It has the same problem I reported on V2.11, it causes Fences 2.12 continues to crash the Windows explorer shell every few minutes, even when I don’t do anything with Windows. On V2.11 you had me move large folders off of the desktop to correct the problem. I have no large folders on the desktop & v2.11 is running fine, but V2.12 crashes removed & reinstalled V2.11 all OK. Note: You may find the previous problem under cavinlang@comcast.net apparently I have 2 accounts here....

I am afraid, Fences 2.12 is still not Windows 8/8.1 compatible. "compatible" means more than just "runs on ...". My issues have been mentioned on this forum already months ago:

Still Win 7 visual appearence (e.g. round corners)
Still cannot use multiple pages with a touch device (no middle mouse key, no alt key on screen keyboard, conflict with charms and start on right and left screen edge)

We are talking about a commercial product, not freeware, aren't we?

For some reason, Fences updated fine to 2.12, but I got a Problem Code 9 in Stardock Central doing it - what was that all about?
