Hey again. I've been trying this a dozen different ways, but I can't
get the keystroke wraparound behavior to work right.
This is what I'm using in my .fvwm2rc:
Key h A 4 Scroll +0 -200000
Key l A 4 Scroll +0 +200000
Key k A 4 Scroll +300000 +0
Key j A 4 Scroll +300000 +0
My desktop size is 3x2. The EdgeScroll behavior is what I want as
follows:
EdgeScroll 100000 100000
but I don't really care for the mouse. It's a necessary evil at best.
When I scroll off the right of the right top page with the
mouse, it goes to the left top page. That works right, but the
Scroll behavior is different. Using Scroll -100000 +0 from the top
left page goes instead to the bottom right. So, it was suggested that
I instead use the
Scroll +0 -200000
call to achieve the same thing. And I've examined the numbers and
geometry a hundred times, but the
Scroll +0 -200000
doesn't work. I've even tried using
Scroll +0 +400000
which should do the same thing. No good.
The <WIN>-<l|k|j> key definitions work exactly as expected. Is it
possible that there is an off by one error in the Scroll behavior
somewhere in the Fvwm2 code involving the vertical scroll behavior?
Just curious if anyone else is doing this or seeing this problem, or
if anyone has any ideas how to fix this in the config.
I don't expect it to make any difference, but it seems to me that the
scrolling behavior should be the same for the mouse and the keyboard.
There's a lot to be said for consistency, and it would be easier if
the code from one piece could be reused in another somehow.
Personally, I prefer the mouse behavior for the common method, but
some people may prefer the opposite. Maybe it should be Yet Another
Configuration Parameter. Just my $0.02
Thanks
Lou

Is knowledge knowable? If not, how do we know that?
