2 Issues I'm Having

Staying Highlighted and shooting to first postion

from Stardock Forums

Hello!

My first issue is that every time I click over to an app, game, etc., where my desktop is not the focus anymore, Fences remembers what icon I had highlighted before, and then if I click back onto the desktop onto another icon, both are now highlighted. Then if I go to drag the thing I just clicked it drags the old thing with it. It is very annoying and only started happening with fences. Is there any way to stop that from happening? I've accidentally deleted so many things from dragging one thing without realizing the icon from forever ago was still highlighted.

My second one that just started maybe yesterday, is that when I drag things around on my desktop they all just shoot to the first open position instead of staying where I placed them.

Hello! I updated it and it seemed to fix the two issues I had previously. It still highlights the last thing I clicked on if I click off, but it does not remain highlighted if I click on something new. I do however have a new issue. Every time the computer boots up everything on the actual desktop is shifted against the border of my screen.

Here is a link to show what I mean, if it does not work let me know and I can upload it elsewhere. (It is tall so you might need to scroll)
