BTW, DjView can also be initially started in fullscreen mode: "djview -fs /path/to/document.djvu". Unfortunately, it is also not working under FVWM. > http://doc.trolltech.com/3.3/qwidget.html#showFullScreen > There is this in the online documentation: > > <quote> > Full-screen mode works fine under Windows, but has certain problems > under X.

To switch this style off, use the NoDecorHint style. But setting it on/off don't have any effect on discussed application.
