"The format of the geometry part is: desk(layer): x-geometry sticky,
where desk and layer are the corresponding numbers and sticky is empty
or a capital S. The geometry of iconified windows is shown in
parentheses."

Hope this helps.

It does, thank you Thomas. But how can a window have negative height and 
zero width?
I may say that the windows in the list shown with negative height are 
shaded. Does that

affect the geometry?

FVWM: Meaning of the right-hand field of the popup window list

2013-01-14 Thread Sian Mountbatten

Can anybody explain the meaning of the numbers of the last field.

For example: 0(4):0x-425+68+0

I reckon that it means:
   (a) Initial zero: desk number
  (b) (4) ???
  (c) 0x-425: width x height. So how can a window have zero width and 
negative height?
  (d) +68+0: +xpos+ypos. That is, the position of the top-left hand 
corner of the window.


Could anybody confirm and explain zero width and negative height?

Sincerely

FVWM: UTF-8 support in fvwm

2012-07-23 Thread Sian Mountbatten
when are we going to get UTF-8 support in fvwm2? I give a font which 
uses the

10646 encoding, but fvwm uses the font without rendering the UTF-8 accented
characters which I use for Esperanto.

I appreciate that this might take a lot of doing, so I am not holding my 
breath!
