Re: Problem setting font for default Style

2001-08-13 Thread Dominik Vogt
From fvwm bug report #735:

 Full_Name: Beiad Ian Q. Dalton
 Version: 2.4.0
 CVS_Date: 
 OS: Debian Sid
 X_Server: Xfree86 4.0.3
 Submission from: (NULL) (65.5.95.44)
 
 
 
 Okay. I'm trying to use a scalable font in the window title, by defining
 it
 with the Style command in the config. I'm okay to use a 100 DPI font such
 as -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-20-* but I am not okay to use a font
 such as -urw-urw bookman l-regular-r-normal-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-*-* which is
 a
 scalable font. However, I'm able to use this font for my menus with the
 MenuStyle command in my config.
 
 If I type into FvwmConsole the Style command, I am told:
 [FVWM][CMD_Style]:
 ERROR Bad style option: font string here
 If I type into FvwmConsole a similar MenuStyle command with the same font
 string, it is accepted and used.

That awfully sounds as like a syntax error in your style line.
Try to enclose the font name in double quotes (it contais
whitespace).  If that does not help, pleas send me the command
line you sent to FvwmConsole.

 Also, and this may be an X server issue instead,

I don't think so.  Fvwm is unhappy with the command line.  It
tries to interpret the font name as a style, not as the argument
to the Font style.

 if I attempt to use a
 19-point helvetica instead of 20-point, it will fall back to the 'fixed'
 font, even though (as far as I can tell) I have a scalable version of
 helvetica installed. If I specify 19-point urw bookman l, I get 19 point.

Bye

Re: xfm and moxfm: Once more unto the breach...

2001-08-13 Thread Bob Woodside

Well, this one has led me a merry chase...and I'm still chasing.

To recap the problem: it boils down to the need to suppress Xlib's
automatic grab when a mouse button is pressed, and the unwanted
LeaveNotify/EnterNotify
events generated by that grab; and it's the Leave/Enter events that
confuse Xtlib's double-click translation logic. This automatic grab used
to be overridden by our button grabs on the parent window, but that's
not happening at present.

The problem seems to be mostly confined to focus.c: focus_grab_buttons,
which doesn't quite work as intended. I've hacked it up to the point
where it does what I think was intended. It seems to work pretty well,
except that it breaks MouseFocusClickRaises. There is clearly some
additional synchronization needed that I haven't figured out yet.

Dominik, if I can't work out the remaining piece in a few days, I'd
like to send you a patch to see if you have any ideas. (I'd rather not
commit my changes as they stand now, knowing that they will break
something.)


Cheers,
Bob

 Er, what is the big difference between
 
   XineramaEnable
   XineramaDisable
 
 and
 
   Xinerama on
   Xinerama off
 
 ?  It just saves the additional commands.  And I can't think of
 any fvwm command that has an off and an on version.

Iconify on
Iconify off

That's what I said.  You have one command with an on and an
off option instead of Iconify and Deiconify.  This makes
toggling these settings possible in the first place.  My wording
was a bit unfortunate, perhaps.
