Definitely not a bug, 'cause it's not a 'global' issue. (Depending on your version)
(3.0.1 here)

Tranparency werkingy goody.

If you have a wallpaper changer you will see the bug.  (Thanks Microsoft!)

I have the issue as well, on dual monitors.  You can see part of the image on the left monitor appearing on the right.

When the left image changes, it leaves a ghost on Fences on the right monitor, and vice versa.

Moreover, if a Fence is set to 0% opacity, it shows the ghost image of the other screen's image only on mouseover.

I've deleted the image from this so it doesn't spam out other people.  It can be found below

I have no idea why my .png image loaded in as text (at least for me).  Here's the same as a .jpg.  Hopefully it works better.

Confirmed, the background blur copies the background from my secondary monitor when I'm using a theme with automatic background rotation. Last Win10 + Fences builds. Looks like Fences do not hook into wallpaper change events to regenerate the blur properly.

The dev team is aware and is looking at options.

I have just upgraded to the latest version and am having the same issue.  Version 2 was fine.  Any fix?

Disable the blur option on Fences.  Fences 2 didn't have this feature which is why it worked fine.
