Improvements are moving in the right direction. The snapping control panel is a good feature.
However, when in icon grid mode, the snap isn't quite in the right position; the tops of icons are visible at the bottom of the fence. This is visually distracting. This may be on purpose as a visual indicator of more content, but it detracts from the clean/uncluttered appearance I seek.
When in "free" size mode, I miss the relative snapping when placing a fence adjacent to an already-sized fence. In the previous version, the second fence would snap to the same height, when placed beside a fence, or the same width, when placed above or below a fence. This made sizing exremely consistent, and lining up the icons much easier.
Are there any plans to allow more options with the fence label? It would be nice to have more control over the font size and justification, as well as the background color for the titlebar itself.
Lastly, as a user in a (semi)controlled business environment using XP, I was disappointed to see that the two coolest features, portals and pages, are for Windows 7 or later only...Couldn't that be more explicit on the features page?
