放牧猫：使用Windows版Stardock围栏整理桌面图标

There are few issues that divide computer people like that thousand-year-old question: How many icons should you have on your desktop? Some folks say, "Load 'em up! Make those pixels work for you." Others say, "I like a fresh bowl desktop with no icons." Some folks find a spot in between with just My Computer and the Recycle Bin.

几乎没有什么问题像千年历史的问题那样将计算机人分开：您的桌面上应该有多少个图标？ 有些人说：“加载它们！让这些像素为您工作。” 其他人则说：“我喜欢一个没有图标的新鲜 碗 桌面。” 有些人只在“我的电脑”和“回收站”之间找到一个位置。

For me, the desktop is my work space. It's where I live and breathe and it's in front of my face all the time. I want as much information on there as possible. If I wanted a picture of the beach, I'd live at the beach and look up from my keyboard.

对我来说，桌面是我的工作空间。 这是我生活和呼吸的地方，一直都在我的面前。 我想要尽可能多的信息。 如果我想要一张海滩的照片，我会住在海滩上，然后从键盘上查找。

I'm thrilled with Windows 7. Frankly, I'm not sure what I'm going to do with all the free time that I'm saving not dicking around with my computer trying to get it to work. Many of the tools I've espoused over the years simply aren't needed in Windows 7 as they were filling gaps that are no longer there.

我对Windows 7感到很兴奋。坦率地说，我不确定我要节省的所有空闲时间将如何处理，而不是为了使计算机正常工作而烦恼。 我多年来拥护的许多工具在Windows 7中根本不需要，因为它们填补了不再存在的空白。

That said, Fences from Stardock is one of those apps that extends Windows in such a comfortable and natural way, it should be built in. What's wonderful about Fences is that it is so subtle but so powerful that it truly becomes part of Explorer and feels like it's always there. It's not like to many loud or garish utilities that take over some aspect of Windows and feel the need to announce their presence with bright colors obnoxious splashscreens.

就是说，Stardock的Fences是应该以内置的自然舒适的方式扩展Windows的那些应用程序之一。Fences的妙处在于它是如此的微妙但功能强大，它确实成为了Explorer的一部分，并且感觉到就像它总是在那里。 它不像是接管Windows某些方面的许多响亮或华丽的实用程序，并感觉需要用令人讨厌的亮色初始屏幕来宣布它们的存在。

Kudos, truly, to Stardock for showing not only a sense of restraint but also for embracing what I think of as the "new Windows aesthetic." Years of ridiculous toolbars, poor icon design, the Crayola-color themes of Windows XP and general gaudiness has watered down Windows and made it almost impossible to consider it an "visually attractive" OS. I think it's great that Windows 7 has a definable style that developers are embracing. I'm thrilled each time I download and play with some throwaway little utility but the developer has taken the time to integrate a Windows 7 feature like JumpLists, Taskbar Progress or even just taken the time to create a decent high-res icon. This is definitely a cue we can take from the Apple folks.

实际上，对Stardock表示感谢，因为他不仅表现出克制感，而且还拥抱我认为的“新Windows美学”。 多年的荒谬工具栏，糟糕的图标设计，Windows XP的Crayola色主题以及普遍的盲目性使Windows泛滥成灾，几乎不可能将其视为“视觉上有吸引力的”操作系统。 我认为Windows 7具有开发人员正在拥抱的可定义样式非常好。 每次下载并使用一些一次性的小工具时，我都会感到很兴奋，但是开发人员却花了一些时间来集成Windows 7功能(如JumpLists，Taskbar Progress)，甚至花时间创建一个不错的高分辨率图标。 这绝对是我们可以从苹果公司员工那里获得的线索。

栅栏增强Windows资源管理器 (Fences Augments Windows Explorer)

Back to Fences. It allows you to create just that - little "Fences" around icons on your desktop. The Fences can be any color and can have labels or not, or just show labels on mouseover.

回到栅栏。 它允许您仅在桌面上的图标周围创建一个小的“栅栏”。 栅栏可以是任何颜色，可以有或没有标签，或仅在鼠标悬停时显示标签。

To create a Fence you just right-drag a rectangle and click "create new fence here." Alternatively you can select from a series of presets to jump start your organization. You can also take snapshots when you get things just so. I do this for presentations because switching from 1920x1200 to 1024x768 tends to wreak havoc on icons and fences. Snapshots put things back they way they were.

要创建围栏，只需右键拖动一个矩形，然后单击“在此处创建新围栏”。 或者，您可以从一系列预设中进行选择，以快速启动您的组织。 您也可以在拍摄快照时进行快照。 我这样做是为了演示，因为从1920x1200切换到1024x768往往会对图标和围栏造成严重破坏。 快照使事情恢复原样。

Once you drag an icon into a fence, it auto-arranges with a satisfying animation as all the icons rearrange themselves to make room for the new addition.Another great subtle feature is if you double-click on the desktop it'll hide your icons. This is not only great for presentations where you might not want to let the eating public see the chaos in the kitchen, but it's also a nice compromise for those of you who want a clean desktop, but can also appreciate a a few icons here and there. You can even exclude specific icons (like perhaps My Computer) from quick-hide.

将图标拖到栅栏中后，它会自动以令人满意的动画进行排列，因为所有图标都会重新排列以为新添加的内容腾出空间。另一个很棒的细微功能是，如果双击桌面，它将隐藏您的图标。 这不仅适合您可能不想让进餐的人看到厨房里的混乱情况的演示文稿，而且对于想要清洁桌面的人来说也是一个不错的折衷方案，但是还可以在这里和那里欣赏一些图标。 您甚至可以从快速隐藏中排除特定的图标(例如“我的电脑”)。

One obscure bug that I hope the Fences guys and gals fix is that there are some applications that take a regular folder, like Live Mesh for example, and "augment" it to make it more than a regular folder. They might change the icons or plug in a sidebar window. For whatever reason, Fences can't see those Folders while they are different. For now, the workaround is to exit Mesh, move the folder into the Fence, then turn Mesh on. Truly a minor irritant and best, but still it'd be nice to see it fixed.

我希望Fences的伙计们和gals修复的一个晦涩的错误是，有些应用程序采用常规文件夹，例如Live Mesh ，并对其进行“增强”使其比常规文件夹更多。 他们可能会更改图标或插入侧边栏窗口。 无论出于何种原因，Fences都不会看到这些文件夹不同的文件夹。 目前，解决方法是退出网格，将文件夹移到栅栏，然后打开网格。 确实是一种小刺激物，也是最好的，但是仍然很高兴看到它已修复。

Regardless, I whole-heartedly recommend Fences and encourage you to go download it NOW and try it out. Note that when you install it, you should pay attention to what it installs, as it also added an "auto-updater" for Stardock products that you may want to remove afterwards if those kinds of extra-applets bother you.

无论如何，我全心全意地推荐Fences，并鼓励您立即下载并试用。 请注意，在安装它时，您应注意其安装内容，因为它还为Stardock产品添加了“自动更新程序”，如果这些额外的小菜困扰您，您可能随后希望将其删除。

Enjoy!

请享用！
