How? You can make a wrapper move function and use that instead of the move command: addtofunc moveandstick + i move $* + i all ... stick on Replace the "..." with a condition that matches all windows that are supposed to become sticky. Then replace all "move" calls in the config with "moveandstick". Ciao Dominik ^_^ ^_^ -- Dominik Vogt

Re: FVWM: sticky windows on given display
Hi, I'd love to do the same with gkrellm, except I'd also like it to always remain on top also. Right now it often ends up hidden under my right panel, since I like to place it in the lower right. Today, each time I start FVWM, I have to manually click on the gkrellm window and then set it to "StaysOnTop". There must be a way to specify in .fvwm/config Start Function area the "StaysOnTop" parameter? right now the line is + I Test (Init) Schedule 8000 Exec gkrellm is it as easy as + I Test (Init) Schedule 8000 Exec gkrellm StaysOnTop Or Do I have to setup a separatet Style with Layers?

FVWM: sticky windows on given display
Hi folks, there's one manual step I'd like to automate with fvwm: I'd like to make all windows that are created or moved to given physical display - sticky. For now I've partially automated that based on the window name, but I'd love to base this on the display where the window is shown rather than on the window name. Is there a reasonable way of doing this? How? Thanks, Martin
