Fences and Deskscape

Possible bug. Fences doesn't work when Deskscapes are running on Windows 7 64 bit. Fences works fine as long as there's no Dream running, but doesn't work when there is.

I have the same type of conflict when running both Fences and Deskscapes on 32-bit XP w/ SP3.

The icons never stay faded out - they fade out then right back in with every mouse click.

The fences do not show. I cannot move "fenced" icons as a group because there's no fence to click & drag.

Deskscapes and Fences (and ActiveDesktop) are incompatible with each other on Windows XP.

They are compatible with each other on Windows Vista (32 and 64 bit) and Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit).

It's odd that there was an issue the first time I tried running it. It's working fine now.

Same here.

I have a feeling a reboot was/is needed....

Rebooting is a good idea after installing either of these applications, but is required after installing Fences.
