That is cool, I've just tested it and it is definitely better to have vertical or horizontal separately (and still keep both). > To enable this functionality I have to grab all CTRL+Mousebutton > events in wmaker, which stops them from reaching the application. > This definitely hurts application functionality in some apps, for > example the "VT Fonts" (CTRL+Button3) menu in xterm is no longer > accessible.

I personally don't care about "VT Fonts" in xterm so I wont miss anything, but others may want to use it. > Because wmaker now controls all CTRL+Mousebutton events, I also > added CTRL+Button1 and CTRL+Button3 shortcuts that will move a > window back and forth through your workspaces without changing its > position or size.

I haven't thought about how to do this in a cleaner way, and will let others do the work ;-) Thanks anyway Johann. Oh, and I was forgetting. I think it would be nice to document the new features in wmaker-crm in some file (perhaps NEWS). So for example these set of resize features should be documented (as well as all the other new stuff in wmaker-crm). Johann, would you mind adding a bullet list to NEWS which would keep track of new stuff after 0.92.0? You don't need to add all the new stuff there, but only summarize the features you added. The rest can be added later, once one digs the logs. -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
