PecoFence 이전 버전 및 전체 버전

PecoFence 0.3.3 checks for new versions by itself and tells you once when one is out. Everything else is as in 0.3.2, which brought free placement of desktop icons, smart fences, fences for each virtual desktop, filtering in folder fences and type tabs in the Peek search.
Highlights
- Automatic update check. The installer and ZIP editions now look for a new version about a minute after start and then once a day. When one is out, a card in the screen corner says so once, with the first line of that version's notes in your language, Update (it downloads and installs the new version) and What's new; the ZIP edition shows Download. The card waits while a full-screen app, a presentation, the Peek or another card is shown, and closes itself after 30 seconds. Until you update, the tray menu starts with Update to and the version. Settings → About → Check for updates automatically turns it off. Before, a new version showed only when you clicked Check for updates there. The Store edition is updated by the Store.
Fixes
- The cards in the screen corner (feature tips, the rating card and the update card) no longer cover the taskbar's hidden icons, the Start menu or the notification center.

Full changelog: v0.3.2...v0.3.3

PecoFence 0.3.2 lets the icons outside your fences stay wherever you put them on the desktop, adds smart fences that show the live result of a search, a filter for folder fences, fences for each virtual desktop and type tabs in the Peek search, opens files you drop on a program with that program, and keeps the fences responsive while File Explorer is busy and smooth on PCs without a graphics card.
Highlights
- Place icons anywhere on the desktop (the most asked-for change: #173, #193, #198, feedback #106, #110, #126, and on linux.do). The icons in no fence used to line up from the top-left, like a Windows desktop with Auto arrange icons on, so an icon dragged elsewhere went back to the end of the columns. Right-click one of them and choose Place freely (also in the Desktop fence's menu and in Settings → Fences), and it works like a Windows desktop with Auto arrange icons off and Align icons to grid on: an icon dropped on the empty desktop stays in the grid cell where you drop it, or in the nearest free one. Several icons dragged together keep their places to each other, new icons take the first free cell, and the arrow keys go to the nearest icon in that direction. The first time, each icon takes the place it had on the Windows desktop (#204). PecoFence remembers the cells for each set of monitors, resolution and scale, so they stay after a restart. A new installation has it on; a configuration from an earlier version keeps it off until you turn it on.
- Smart fences. A smart fence shows the live result of a saved search, and the files stay where they are. New smart fence… in the tray menu (and under Add to desktop in the fence menu) opens a small window, like a smart folder in Apple's Notes: a name, Include files that meet all (or any one) of these conditions, one row per condition, and the number of files found right now. Five templates fill the rows in one click: Downloads of the last 7 days, Screenshots of the last week, Files over 1 GB, All .psd files and Recently opened files. A row can look at the Location (a folder, several folders or the whole computer), subfolders, Time, Type, Extension, Name (with pinyin, as the Peek search matches), Size, Time created, Weekday created, a shortcut's target, Idle days or Everything's own search syntax. Edit conditions… in the fence menu, or in Settings → Fences, changes the search later. The title shows a folder with a magnifier badge, and the number of files in a grey capsule at its right end. The files open, drag out, rename, delete and preview as in a folder fence. New files show within about a second, and the fence searches again once a minute and on Refresh now (F5). The search runs in Everything when it runs; without Everything, a smart fence over one folder reads that folder itself, and a whole-computer search offers Start Everything or Install Everything in its menu.
- Filter a folder fence or a smart fence. Ctrl+F, or Filter… in the fence menu, turns the title row into a search box like Windows 11's, and every key narrows the fence to the names that match, pinyin initials included; the box shows how many files are left, such as 4 / 31. Type pdf or Images and press Tab, and the type becomes a tag while you go on typing a name. Enter keeps the filter as a tag in the title row, and Esc or Clear filter shows everything again. Save filter as a smart fence keeps what the filtered fence shows as a smart fence.
- Fences for each virtual desktop. Right-click a fence's title, open Show on virtual desktop and pick a desktop by its Task View name, or choose it in Settings → Fences. When you switch desktops with Win+Ctrl+Left/Right or in Task View, the fences of the old desktop fade out and those of the new one fade in. A small Task View icon before the title marks a fence that shows on some desktops only, and pointing at it says where. With Settings → General → Separate fences for each virtual desktop on, a new fence shows only on the desktop it is made on. The Desktop fence stays on ev

PecoFence 0.3.1 opens folders you drop onto a program in a fence with that program, and its installer now runs on Windows 10 2004 and later.
Highlights
- Drop folders onto a program to open them with it (#194, thanks to @lizt12). Drop one or more folders onto an application's shortcut in a fence, or onto a program file itself (a portable app's .exe, .com, .bat or .cmd), and the program starts with those folders, with the shortcut's saved arguments and start folder. The folders stay where they are and keep their fence, and the badge says Open with and the program's name. Files, files and folders together, and shortcuts that are not programs (documents, folders, broken or Store app links) go into the fence as before.
Fixes
- The installer runs on Windows 10 2004 and later (build 19041), as the Store edition does. Windows 10 21H2 and LTSC 2021 used to get "This program does not support the version of Windows your computer is running", although the portable ZIP ran there.

Full changelog: v0.3.0...v0.3.1

PecoFence 0.2.5 fixes the freeze at the first right-click on a folder that some 0.2.4 users ran into, makes deleting and the keyboard work where they did not, lets the Store edition turn its own autostart on, and lets you edit your sorting rules.
Fixes
- The first right-click on a folder no longer freezes PecoFence (feedback #103, #109). The first time a program builds a folder's right-click menu, Windows starts a helper thread and waits for it. A menu extension that creates a window while it is being loaded (Baidu Netdisk's does) made Windows ask for that thread at a moment when no new thread could start, so PecoFence waited forever and had to be ended in Task Manager. File Explorer does not run into this, because its helper thread already runs. PecoFence now gets that thread started in the background when it starts, without loading any menu extension. In a test machine with Baidu Netdisk, 0.2.4 froze in 9 of 23 first right-clicks and 0.2.5 in none of 22.
- Delete, F2, Enter and Ctrl+C work on icons selected with a rectangle on the empty desktop when the Desktop fence is arranged like the desktop (feedback #108). The keys went to the hidden Windows icons and nothing happened.
- Delete, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+X react at once (feedback #108). PecoFence built the whole right-click menu, with every installed program's menu extensions, to find the command on every press; it now asks Windows for the command by name, as File Explorer does. Pressing Delete again, or holding it, while a delete is still running no longer deletes the same files a second time (Windows showed "Could not find this item").
- No flash when the fences come back after a double-click on the empty desktop (feedback #99): they no longer appear fully for a moment, vanish and only then fade in.
- Start with Windows works in the Microsoft Store edition (feedback #105): a click turns autostart on or off, as in the other editions. When you turned PecoFence off in Windows' Startup settings or Task Manager, only you can turn it on again there; the switch then says so and opens that page.
- Copy, cut, paste and the other icon keys work during Peek (feedback #102): Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X, Ctrl+V, Delete, F2, Enter, the arrow keys, Ctrl+A and the menu key act on the icon you clicked. Enter opens it and ends the Peek.
- Arrange like the desktop can be turned off from the Desktop fence itself (feedback #106, #107, #173): right-click any of its icons. Settings and the online manual now say that the icons keep their order, as with Windows' "Auto arrange icons", and cannot be placed freely; turning it off makes Desktop a normal fence again.
- PecoFence no longer closes with "RefCell already borrowed" while it follows the virtual desktops (GitHub #166, reported by @dudantas), and two other waits of the same kind are fixed.
- After a crash inside another program's file, such as WPS Office's shell extension, the notice at the next start names that file (GitHub #167 by @dudantas, feedback #97).
- Programs that land on the desktop show their own icon, also while a virus scanner still checks them (linux.do: Geek Uninstaller showed the blank program icon).
- Space previews in Seer as well as in QuickLook (linux.do).
- Settings no longer says a rule was saved when PecoFence could not store it (an idle-days value beyond its range); the page shows the stored rules again and says so.
- When double-click hide or the desktop rectangle does nothing, the log now says why, including whether File Explorer runs as administrator (GitHub #171, reported by @YidongTu). When PecoFence stops answering, its log keeps more of the place where it was stuck.
Highlights
- Edit a rule (feedback #104). Each rule in Settings → Sorting rules has an Edit rule button that opens the rule in its own row: its name, the target fence and every condition. Save keeps the rule at its place in the list and leaves it on or off as it was; Cancel or Esc changes nothing. Before, a rule could only be deleted and added again, which also put i

PecoFence 0.2.4 lets the icons that are in no fence stand on the desktop like Windows' own, brings icon size and spacing sliders, hidden labels, infotips and a dozen options you asked for, and fixes fences hiding after Refresh, fences changing size between monitors, freezes with a full Recycle Bin and crashes with Liquid Glass on AMD graphics.
Highlights
- Icons on the desktop, like Windows' own (requested in in-app feedback 93, in #152 by @lsntruk and #158 by @w19996, and by everyone who wanted the Recycle Bin back on the desktop). Arrange like the desktop in the Desktop fence's menu (also in Settings → Fences) takes away its title row, glass and edges: the icons that are in no fence stand down columns from the top-left corner of the monitor with white names, as with Windows' Auto arrange icons, and flow around your fences. A click beside them reaches the Windows desktop and its right-click menu; dragging an icon into a fence takes it off the desktop, and dragging it out puts it back in the columns; a rectangle drawn on the empty desktop selects icons. New configurations start with it on; a configuration from an earlier version keeps the Desktop fence until you turn it on.
- Icon size, spacing and labels (#156, contributed by @uvw). Icon size in Settings → Fences is a slider from 24 to 128 px that snaps to the menu's 32, 48, 64 and 96; Icon spacing goes from narrower than Compact to well past Spacious; Icon labels shows one, two or three lines, or Hidden: each cell shrinks to a square around its icon, and the name shows in the tooltip. Default icon size in Settings → General is the same slider. Older versions refuse every pecofence-cli settings set while the default size is between the four, and draw fences with hidden labels with broken cells.
- Infotips. Resting the pointer on an icon shows its name, type, size and date, as on the desktop, and a shortened tab shows its full title. The tips look like Explorer's, turn dark in dark mode and follow Show pop-up description for folder and desktop items in Folder Options.
- Folders first (#143, contributed by @uvw, requested by @roncli in #139). Sort by → Folders first in the fence menu keeps folders above files in every order, also with Reverse order; the Recycle Bin and the other system items stay above them.
- Show the Windows desktop for now (in-app feedback 84, 42 and 70). Record a shortcut for it in Settings → General (it has none until you choose one), or use the tray menu or pecofence-cli windows-desktop start / end: it hides every fence and shows the Windows desktop icons so you can work on the Windows desktop, and the next press brings the fences back. Nothing of it is saved.
- Custom colors (#140, contributed by @xan2622, requested by @roncli in #138). Icon tint, Tint and Tab color have a Custom color swatch that opens the Windows color dialog, where any color can be picked or typed in.
- Italian (#130, contributed by @MichelePezza, an AI translation reviewed by hand). Settings → General → Appearance → Display language offers Italiano, and Use system setting picks it when Windows shows Italian. The setup speaks Italian too, and the online manual, the website, the README and the Microsoft Store listing have Italian versions.
- Single-click opening (in-app feedback 86, 42 and 73). When File Explorer is set to Single-click to open an item (point to select), fences behave like the desktop: a click opens an icon, the pointer is a hand over icons, and resting on an icon selects it. PecoFence follows the Windows setting and has no setting of its own.
- Hide when empty for every fence (in-app feedback 88 and 48). A fence with it on goes away with its last icon and comes back at its place when an icon is filed into it. It was only offered for the Desktop fence.
- Expand upward (#142, contributed by @thiagofmde, requested by @Playmyone in #125). With Fence options… → Expand upward, a rolled-up fence opens upward from its title row when it fits, so one resting on the taskbar no lo

PecoFence 0.2.3 fixes what the 0.2.2 release test found: signing out with a menu open, folders shown on the desktop after a rename, the startup switch of the portable and Store editions, and a set of smaller problems.
Fixes
- Signing out with a menu open. Signing out or shutting down while a PecoFence menu is open now shows the Windows desktop icons again and keeps your last changes. Windows closed the menu and ended PecoFence before telling it about the sign-out, so the icons stayed hidden until PecoFence started again, and a fence moved just before the menu opened went back.
- Folders shown on the desktop notice when their folder on a local disk is renamed or moved away: within a minute the fence says This folder cannot be found., shows the files of a new folder made at the same path, and shows the folder again when it is renamed back. It used to keep showing the old files.
- Start with Windows in the portable edition. A copy started with --portable now starts with Windows with its own configuration: the startup entry carries --portable (it opened the %APPDATA% configuration and the first-start fences at sign-in), an older entry gets the flag the next time the copy is started with --portable, and the switch shows whether the entry starts this copy.
- Start with Windows in the Store edition shows the switch Windows keeps for PecoFence under Windows Settings → Apps → Startup, and follows a change made there when you come back to PecoFence's Settings. A click opens that page without flipping the switch by itself.
- Peek after Win+Up. Windows 11's snap layouts popup no longer ends a Peek, so the search you type goes to PecoFence, and it no longer turns off the desktop's double-click or ends Win+D's floating fences.
- Fluent: a right click cancels moving a fence by its title also while the pointer rests.
- Windows 10 without its September 2023 update: About and pecofence-cli status show PecoFence's memory again instead of 0.0 MB, and About no longer says "for Windows 11".
- The roll-up chevron shows when the pointer goes from a fence's border, or from a gap between tabs, onto the title row, and after the first click on a cut-off tab; it used to wait for another pointer move.
- After a start at sign-in, folders get their icon asked again like the other icons.
- New .tmp files show in a fence after a minute, also with the Windows desktop icons shown.
- Shortcuts PecoFence makes (Alt held while dragging into a folder fence) are named in the Windows display language, as Explorer names them.
- Screen readers read the rule buttons with the UI language's colon; the Store edition starts its wait for the rating notice at the first start; a folder fence whose folder is gone no longer writes a warning to the log at every change.
