I don't really have any comments (except maybe get the latest FvwmIconMan
which is 1.0 :-)) since I really doubt this is a FvwmIconMan problem. I'm
mainly reposting this with a subject more likely to attract people who know.
My only guess is that your line:
Style "Fvwm*" NoTitle, Sticky, WindowListSkip
is somehow confusing things due to the windowlistskip. My suggestion for a
thing to do is first remove all Style lines, except for the SmartPlacement,
and see if it's still happening.
