That's why you can whiz the mouse around the screen and the menu stays posted and other windows don't get focus (even if you have focus follows mouse) and the mouse cursor doesn't change shape, etc. And I don't men just FVWM menus, I mean menus in just about any app. Or, is that something different? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
