Hello,
I'm running FVWM-2.3.21 under RedHat Linux 6.0.
I have some slight problems with the 'Resize' command.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm attempting to resize a terminal window (xterm or rxvt)
by a single character, by moving its bottom right corner.
The two commands:
Resize bottomright w+1c keep
Resize bottomright keep w-1c
both work correctly, making the window one character wider
and one character shallower, respectively.
However, the command:
Resize bottomright w-1c keep
makes the window *two* characters narrower, rather than just one.
Furthermore, the command:
Resize bottomright keep w+1c
has no effect on the window, instead of making it one character deeper.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some other problems arise when attempting to resize windows created by
"pixel-oriented" programs such as xdvi, gv, or ee (Electric Eyes).
In these cases:
Resize bottomright w+1c keep makes the window 10 pixels wider
Resize bottomright w-1c keep makes the window 11 pixels narrower
Resize bottomright keep w+1c makes the window 7 pixels deeper
Resize bottomright keep w-1c makes the window 8 pixels shallower
From the FVWM documentation, I would have expected that here, '1c'
should mean 1 pixel. Or at any rate, that all four resize commands
should change the window size by the same amount in each case.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wonder if my understanding of what's supposed to happen is incorrect,
or if there's a bug in the code for resizing?
I would be grateful if one of the developers could take a look at this.
Thanks! -- Joseph
