Here I demonstrate some bad problems with the current move/placement methods. I use TiledCascadePlacement, but this should not matter here. I know that xv was always problematic, but I see this with some other programs too. (And there were good workarounds for xv previously.)
1) Run: xv -geo 1500x1500 pictures/fvwm-logo-steelblue.gif Part of the image is out of the screen, because the title is fully visible, previously the image was fully visible and the title was out of the screen. Additionally, click right mouse and double click the file name, the window walks to the right (can't go down here). Press "n" several times to see it walking right-down. 2) Run: xv -nol huge-image.gif small-image.gif If you don't have any huge image, you may for example run first "xv -geo 1500x1500 small-image.gif" and save it to huge-image.gif. Click right mouse and double click the second (small) image for several times, it walks right and down. 3) Run (like the previous, but reversed image order): xv -nol small-image.gif huge-image.gif Now the window itself is ok (behaves like previously, try to double click both file names to see it), but if you invoke any of the 7 windows from the "Windows" submenu, they are placed partially out of the screen (the offset of decorations). Also try to maximize the small image and then switch to the huge one, the maximized image is moved left-up. Today I even experienced this strange problem with xv: just pressing the window title (that invokes "+ H Move") caused the window to walk, but unpressing returns the window to the original position. I currently can't provide instructions for reproduction. 4) Run display from ImageMagick: display Then press right mouse and choose "Image Info", this window is placed partially out of the screen. Any comments or fixes? Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
