So you can invoke many commands by clicking, but the one that calls a menu is failing. What about launching without clicking? For example type this in sawfish-client: (popup-window-menu (get-window-by-name-re "TITLE")) Replace TITLE with (part of) a title of a window you have already open. It should report that a process is running, and show a menu near the mouse (not the window), and of course perform operations if you use arrows and enter to select a function from the menu. If still no menu, then the problem is somewhere else (the menu structure or the menu program or ...) and not about clicks being intercepted. GSR -- Sawfish ML
