Thanks :) This is wonderful, I didn't realise these placement options are actually styles. That must be something I remember to be a global option from fvwm1 ... "PositionPlacement -0 +0" does what I want very elegantly :) Another question: Is it possible to make a "particular window" pop up under the pointer upon pressing a key? "Particular window" means that I usually have an rxvt open with a screen session. I don't want this window to be sticky. When I move to another page of the desktop, I might want to move this window to the page I'm on and place it on top of other windows under the pointer by pressing a key. Moving and raising the window is probably easy. The problem is how to let fvwm know which window I want to move to the pointer. How could I identify the window? -- http://www.asciiribbon.org/ http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1855 http://www.caliburn.nl/topposting.html
