Humm first of all this now should be a flag StippledTitle vs
!StippledTitle. I will correct the man page.

No, there isn't. I did send a patch in last year to address this
problem, but it was mostly ignored.
Style only works with window/class names. So there's no easy way of
telling fvwm just to stipple sticky windows. (Like "Style Sticky
!StippledTitle"). Perhaps this could be done with conditional
commands, but it's not an easy thing. The imediate solution would be
to add another style to set/reset the StippledTitle flag only on the
sticky windows, or globally (like Style * NeverStipple) but in my
oppinion this is wrong..
But the long term solution would be to extend the Style command not
just for window/class names but also for Window states ("Style Icon
(...)" or "Style Sticky (...)").
Dominik?
Finally as a personal oppinion, I see no utility in the current
StippledTitle style, so maybe Thomas' patch could be re-discussed?
