Hello, I have another FAQ suggestion based on a question I've seen quite frequently on irc and email, etc. feel free to modify/correct/rewrite :)
Q. When I Maximize an application, sometimes I get gaps around the edges, and other times I don't. What's going on? A. The ICCCM specification allows applications to specify certain properties the window manager should honour, such as aspect ratio (PAspect) or increments to be resized in (PResizeInc). Of course, sometimes these properties won't perfectly match the size of your desktop (or ewmh struts), if that should happen, you will get gaps. In general, the application will have a good reason for doing this (for example, a terminal window may not want to have only part of a column visible), but you can make fvwm ignore the hints with ResizeHintOverride. (The docs suggest only Max/Min size is ignored with ResizeHintOverride, but that doesnt seem to be true...not that I'm complaining, I like this feature! (well, i'd prefer it didnt clobber P/USPosition, but I can live with that!)) -- ------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] | finger me for my gpg key. ------------------------------------------------------- -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
