> and then cascade rather than from left to right? I don't understand what you want.
I mistyped. What I meant was the first window gets placed in the center, and subsequent windows get tiled to the left and the right of the center and then when all the screen has been taken up, the windows get cascaded over top of each other out from the center. I just tried Style * CenterPlacement and the behavior I got was a little odd. If my cursor is over my left monitor, the new window gets placed in the center of that monitor. If my cursor is over my right monitor, the new window gets placed at the very left of that monitor. And, there doesn't appear to be any tiling or cascading. All windows appear in the same spot. (which fits the description in the man page) I then tried MinOverlapPlacement to see how it worked, and it also gave me bizarre behavior on the right monitor but did what I expected on the left monitor. As far as I know, I don't have anything special set up for my two monitors. I am using fvwm 2.5.19 and fedora core 5. For now, I'll just go back to using the default TileCascadePlacement Emilie
