Sure. This doesn't work. You have to remove the "I" bits first
;-) ALthough it probably happened by accident, I think it is
correct that recapturing a window does not modify the window's
layer. To do this at run time, use the layer command. With the
same reasoning, changing the "Sticky" and "StartsIconic" styles
with Recapture should be no-ops too. Remember, I'm still trying
to obsolete and finally remove the Recapture command.

Or if you want to changle the layers of all windows with the given
name:
AddToMenu MenuFvwmWindowOps
+ "StaysOnTop" All ($n) Layer 0 6
+ "StaysPut" All ($n) Layer 0 4
+ "StaysBottom" All ($n) Layer 0 2
I recommend not to promote any configs that use the Recapture
command anymore. As far as I know, it is not recessary to update
any styles and can be avoided in all other situations too.
Recapture = buggy, inefficient, stupid, visually disturbing... (I
could continue ranting about it forever).
