I'm using 2.0.45 (SunOS) and have the following remark & questions:
Remark(bug?):
I have the following ButtonStyles in my fvwm2rc file
# Standard X
ButtonStyle 1 17 20x20_at_1 30x20_at_1 50x40_at_1 70x20_at_1 80x20_at_1 80x30_at_0 60x50_at_0 80x70_at_1 80x80_at_0 70x80_at_0 50x60_at_0 30x80_at_0 20x80_at_0 20x70_at_0 40x50_at_1 20x30_at_0 20x20_at_1
# Nested Right Angles (looks nice)
ButtonStyle 2 14 0x0_at_1 0x20_at_1 20x20_at_0 20x0_at_0 0x0_at_1 0x25_at_1 25x25_at_1 25x0_at_1 55x0_at_1 55x55_at_0 0x55_at_0 0x60_at_1 60x60_at_1 60x0_at_1
Style "*" Color White/DimGray, WindowListSkip, NoHandles, DecorateTransient, BorderWidth 3
which works fine for the most part except on a few windows. On those few
windows, button-2 is non-existent.
Easiest way to replicate what I'm seeing would be through Netscape. While
using Netscape, try to ftp something which will spawn a query window
prompting the user for a file name to use and directory location (the window
name is "Save As... (type application/x-tar, encoding x-compress)" ). That
query window on my system will get spawned only with button-1.
Questions:
1. Is there a way grow the pager via a hot-key or a menu click. In other
words, I currently use a 'DeskTopSize 3 3 & FvwmPager 0 0' and would
sometimes like to expand my view to say 'FvwmPager 0 2'. The way I'm doing
it now is by killing my current pager, and then invoking a new Pager via
'FvwmPager 0 2'. Is there anyway to say "grow by 1" or "shrink by 1" and
have it replace the current pager that I'm looking at; would it be possible
to yank on the borders and grow the pager, but instead of the internals
growing, get a duplicated view (actually, it would be nice to have both
features - grow the internals and/or get an expanded look based on some user
defined variables) ?
2. David S. Goldberg (dsg_at_linus.mitre.org) wrote "RTFM, particularly the
section on EdgeResistance" when asked about how to disable scrolling.
From my experiments the true way to disable scrolling is via
"EdgeResistance 10000 10000" and not "EdgeScroll 0 0" as it states in the
man pages. The reason I'm saying this is due to the fact that you can still
scroll even if you have "EdgeScroll 0 0" in your .fvwm2rc when you move
windows about.
--> Clarification on how to _completely_ disable scrolling (TogglePage) ??
3. Is there a way to bind _multiple_ complex functions to a key/stroke ?
In other words, can I do the following:
AddToFunc my-window-sizer
+ "C" Maximize 50 100
+ "D" Maximize 50 100, Move 50 0
instead of
AddToFunc my-window-sizer
+ "C" Maximize 50 100
+ "D" Maximize 50 100
+ "D" Move 50 0
It seems as though some modules accept the comma (WinList, IconMan, etc)
to bind actions to keys/strokes while others don't, is there anyway to
generalize on this and make it applicable to everything (ie. through
fvwm's parsing)
Thanks in advance for the help.
