The Human Eye: A design review

Occasionally I see creationists point to the human eye as a miracle of design, as if this somehow is evidence of divine origin for the human form. Unfortunately, from an engineering perspective, the human eye is seriously suboptimal. It simply isn't tha...

It seems that one of Win 10's latest updates has caused my cursor FX to not integrate with the default cursor i.e. Cursor FX rides on top of the default which is clearly visible now. So, I have two pointers! I downloaded the Cursor FX update to no avail. Any help on this one?

Hey Guys,

 

I think Windows 10 updated overnight and now Fences lost a recent layour (that I've had for at least a month or more) and everytime I restore a snapshot from yesterday, it reverts back to the prior layout in under a second.

 

Whats going on?

 

Thanks

When I post a link say https://forums.elementalgame.com/forum/1050 the forum (sometimes) edits the actual hyperlink to be something completely different like https://forums.elementalgame.com/484175/page/forum/1050 if I post it in that topic (https://forums.elementalgame.com/484175/) which makes the link not work.

Used the 'Junior' Icon Package which comes with the Packager on Windows 10.

Works, BUT if I check the Windows Components with the 'SFC'-Command, sfc reports that the components are in need of repair.

After repairing with 'sfc' a lot of icons have been restored to their original images.

What should I do? Apply the icons again and let the components in a 'broken' state?

Anyone else with the same problem?

I don't think it'll be addressed because other users seem to have been requesting the same thing for the last 7 years, but is there any reason why Fences ignores and overrides my Windows 10 settings to disable all animations?

Without Fences installed moving an icon on the desktop happens instantaneously.  With Fences installed an animation is applied - the icon goes back to where it was originally and animates from that starting position back to where I just dropped it.  Apart from ...

An interesting concept... Microsoft is planning broadcast internet to rural areas using unused TV frequencies. 

"The system is known as white-spaces technology and uses wireless frequencies that are in the band reserved for over-the-air TV broadcasts but aren't currently being used. While Microsoft plans to use some of these frequencies, it wants the government to reserve at least three frequencies in each local area for use with the technology." infopackets after NYT

Hi.

WindowBlinds 10.5 is causing the date and time in the taskbar to be cut off by the show desktop button. I have the taskbar position set to the left of the screen as I find it to be a more efficient use of screen space. I have found a temporary fix by resetting the position of the taskbar back to the bottom then returning to the left side of the screen, but the problem recurs almost immediately.

I am using a Surface Pro 4 128GB, 4GB ram, running Windows 10 pro anniversary edition fully ...

Trying to tidy up my desktop. It's been a while. But, to my surprise, I can no longer move my icons to my fences.

I am using latest version of fences.

Is there some setting which may have changed during an update, or that I may have inadvertently changed?

Hello,

I saw lots of posts about the title bar moving to the bottom when align to the top edge of the screen. These posts are a few years old and I can't imagine that the developers of Fences didn't do anything in all these years.

So how can I lock those title bars ?

Hi,

 

I feel bad for Chrome apps discontinuing...

I like StickNotes8 (chrome app). I'm looking for another sticky notes apps on windows10.

If 'Fences' supports 'Memo fence', it's a good solution.

 

*customize appearances

*synchronize to Googledrive,onedrive,dropbox ... etc.

 

any other suggestions ?

thank you.
