Keyboard Input

from Stardock Forums

Fences is likely catching my keyboard input so that I can't use my keyboard interacting with other features? How do I disable the keyboard input of Fences?

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Not really sure what you mean by Fences is catching your keyboard input? Please elaborate. And also include few more details.

1) Windows version. Please use Winver.exe for full Windows version numbers.

2) Fences versions.

3) What other 'features' cant you use?

The feature is that using the keyboard input works for URL wallpaper and it inputs characters as if on the website. When I use Fences and wallpaper engine at the same time, I find that my keyboard can't interact with my wallpaper.

So its not WPE per se`, its one specific 3rd party Wallpaper, yes?

Well, that is going to be problematic as not only it is a possible conflict with 3rd party, it's one with a 4th. 

I would be interested to know if you have contacted the author of the Wallpaper for their thoughts.

I contacted the developer of the Wallpaper before. He thought that the Fencens is likely catching the keyboard input.
