Hi, According to the fvwm manpage, I should report "something specific that you cannot do without [Recapture|RecaptureWindow]", if I find it.
I like to have my screen absolutely blank -- all screen-space must be available for the application to use -- , but I also like to have a pager, terminal, stats, etc available at a moment's notice. My solution to this is to set certain applications to a style without title or handle, shade them in the appropriate direction[0], and place them on the borders of the page with a FvwmAuto set for each one to unshade it if the mouse passes over it. All applications except for gkrellm2 are fine with this. gkrellm2 occasionally unshades to be as so: .----. . X. . X. . X. . X. . X. . X. . X. . X. . X. .___X. ...where 'X' denotes a part of gkrellm2 that I can see, ' ' denotes a completely transparent space, and the rest of the characters show the border of window. So I end up with a 1-pixel wide view of the right edge of gkrellm2, and a whole lot of transparent space between the left edge of the screen and said edge. RecaptureWindow, called whenever this happens, solves this problem. Is there another way to solve it _without_ using RecaptureWindow? Thanks and regards, Yusuf [0] If on the West edge, the shading is to the West; if on the North edge, the shading is North; and so forth. -- No .sigs attached.
