Hello,
How often have you opened up a menu in fvwm and you were just too close to
one of the borders of the screen?
I suggest adding an option to fvwm2 to do the following with Popup menus:
divide the screen into 4 quadrants:
|----------|----------|
| | |
| 2 | 1 |
| | |
|----------|----------|
| | |
| 3 | 4 |
| | |
|----------|----------|
In quadrant 2 popup menus act as they normally would.
In quadrants 1 and 4 the menus appear with the arrow widgets on the left
of the menu and pointing to the left instead of being on the right pointing
to the right.
In quadrants 3 and 4 menus are to fall upwards instead of downwards.
...
this scheme would have th advantage of redirecting menus away from boarders of
screens thus making selection of items easier.
Best Regards,
Neil Zanella
