Fences looks pretty nice. I am basically using the Tiles in Windows 8.1 in exactly the same scheme. Why anyone would want to use a dropdown menu for this function is beyond me.
Agreed. I group my shortcuts by my made-up categories, and Fences then orders the shortcuts within the groupings using title alpha-numerics. In the past, a reboot or crash would scatter them all over the place in spite of ordered placement I setup using the OS. A lifesaver.
