You can test Xinerama if you configure fvwm with
--enable-xinerame-emulation.

There are emwh ignore hints commands if you just want to ignore the hint that makes it sticky. If you are more concerned with the decorations, you'll want: Style XXX NoTitle, BorderWidth 0, HandleWidth 0, NoHandles Use FvwmIdent to get the value for XXX. Use either the Name, Class, or Resource.

The horizontal lines indicate the window is "sticky" (shown on all desktops). This is probably done by the application with an emwh hint. You could start by looking in the application preferences to see if the hints can be controlled. Otherwise the Fvwm documentation can be used to find out how to override hints.
FVWM: Trouble with Sun Presenter Console
Hello, I try to use the Sun presenter Console on a dual-head screen (diffenrent content on beamer and TFT). Unfortunately the Windows are decorated :( Are there other types of Windows than Transient and normal ones? I ask this Question, because the decoration looks somewhat unusual as the top window has 3 horizontal lines, which I don't have on my generic fvwm Windows. So how can I make the undecorated? I'm using fvwm 2.5.26 from Debian lenny. Sven -- "Those who do not understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly" (Henry Spencer) /me is gig...@ircnet, http://sven.gegg.us/ on the Web
