Hi,
In my .fvwm2rc, I have a function bound to the edges of the screen
with EdgeCommand (see below for the details). The problem is that
when the mouse pointer stays on the edge the function is being called
again and again, which prevents fvwm from doing any useful work until
the mouse pointer is moved away from the edge (for example the
scheduled commands do not work). Can anybody tell me when exactly
the function bound to the edge is called, how can I control the
frequency of it being called? The only solution I can think of is
removing the edge bindings for a second or so every time the edge
function is called.
The manpage says the following about EdgeCommand
"Function is executed when the mouse pointer enters the invisible pan
frames that surround the visible screen."
but my experience shows that Function can be callled even if the mouse
pointer stays on the edge (and does not reenter the pan frame).
While still on this topic, what is the easier way of testing whether
the mouse pointer is currently over one of the pan frames?
Thanks,
Piotr
