the icon. What I want is to have an icon box with icons generated as
snapshots like this, but not just when the windows are iconified. I want
this to work more like a taskbar, with the buttons being the snapshot
icons. Unfortunately, I don't see a way to dynamically update icons in
FvwmIconBox, nor a way to have windows display icons when not iconified
using the built in iconbox. Does anyone have ideas on how to this?
Look at question 7.18 in the FAQ.
I've already looked in the FAQ, I didn't see anything for what I want to do. What I want to have is something like an FvwmIconMan or a taskbar, but the buttons will be the window thumbnails. The buttons will be present whether a window is iconified or not. Some kind of process, periodic and/or event triggered, will continually update the thumbnails to what the windows currently look like. If I used the approach in the FAQ 7.18, I could only have icons if the windows are iconified. I've been playing with FvwmIconBox, but if the window changes (and the icon changes as well), the icon will not update in the FvwmIconBox unless I restart it.
