Fence settings pr display profile

from Stardock Forums

I have a laptop which is connected via docking station. Like i assume 60% of the working force around the world has.   

When i arrange fences on my normal setup how i would like it across my 3 screens.  it works when i restart etc.   But when i Undock to go to a meeting, all placements are "lost".  because they need to be placed on 1 laptop screen.   when i then dock in again.  all fences are put into the main screen as one big mess.

Since windows can remember my settings when i dock in and out.  i'm assuming windows must have some display profiles etc.    

It would be a great help if i could setup fences for each of my different profiles.    So when i'm docked in   and moving around the fences, it will remember those changes for the docking profile.  when i'm undocked it will arrange how i have arranged the fences when i was undocked on my laptop. 

in general i have 2-3 meeting pr. day.  and if i have to rearrange fences every time, it's kind of useless :-)   Hope it's a setting i have missed, or a feature which is easy to develop..

Am I reading it correctly this is only supported in the object desktop version?  and not only the fences licens?

If you still have the issue please report back in that thread with information as requested there: https://forums.stardock.com/527284/get;3927360

Also, please make sure the new option turn on : Backups: Layout management -> Layout auto-adjustments->Store my layout on a per-monitor-configuration basis.
