See FvwmButtons -geometry $[wp.width]-fooxbar > b) a set of buttoms to launch specific applications, like a terminal > and a text editor; each button should have a fixed size, according > to the icon used in each one See "BoxSize smart" then. > c) a pager, also at a fixed size, depending on the number of desktops It doesn't work that way -- you would generally want to define the button size. > d) an icon manager (FvwmIconMan) to handle windows; its size can vary > according to the number o icons displayed at the icon manager, and > the available space in the buttonsbox, growing from left to right > if needed and possible Not possible. A running application is not responsible and *cannot* resize the containing button in that way once FvwmButtons has reparented it. > e) a system icon tray (like stalonetray), with a size that can vary > according to the number of icons displayed, growing from right to > left if needed Stalonetray itself can vary its own size depending on the number of options (read the documentation for it), but again, the containing button will not. > f) some monitors, like a cpu monitor and a network monitor (at fixed > sizes) See xosview. > g) a digital clock, like gtkclock or xdaliclock, at a fixed size See xclock > 3) the configuration should not directly rely on a specific screen > dimension; this means that the same configuration should work on > different screen sizes or even on different computers Then explicitly use the "Size" option (see FVwmButtons manpage) -- Thomas Adam
