Note first that I have not xv on my machine (xv has disappeared from some distributions as Redhat and Mandrake). You should try: Style "match_xv" MoveByProgramMethod IgnoreGravity or Style "match_xv" MoveByProgramMethod UseGravity However, maybe the ICCCM/Traditional move method can be improved: Do not make any conclusion for window which are larger than the screen. > [snip] > > 4) Run display from ImageMagick: > > display > > Then press right mouse and choose "Image Info", this window is placed > partially out of the screen. > It does not seems that this is related to the new ICCCM/Traditional move stuff. For me this depends on the position of the main display window (if it is at top left then the transient image info pop up on my screen). I think it is a Transient Windows placement problem (or miss-feature). Regards, Olivier -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
