The matter is not what I think is right. The matter is HOW to 'Use NorthWestGravity, not StaticGravity' in the configuration file fvwm2rc. Looking around I have found that 'xwininfo' might be informative. For the window in question I get: (...) Bit Gravity State: ForgetGravity Window Gravity State: StaticGravity (...) Searching in FLTK-1.3 I found that in fact the values attr.bit_gravity = 0; // StaticGravity; 7:NorthWestGravity hints->win_gravity = StaticGravity; // NorthWestGravity are used. After replacing bit_gravity with 7 and win_gravity with NorthWestGravity, the window in question showed up as wanted. HOW must run the line(s) in fvwm2rc to change these values? winfried
