FVWM: Resizing windows accross page borders, behaviour changed?

2007-05-16 Thread Bert 'theBlackDragon' Geens

Hello,

I used to be able to move pages whie dragging a window to a differnet
page by passing the page's edge, but when resizing a window the page
edge blocked further movement.

Now, starting from 2.5.20 I noticed that suddenly when resizing a
window it'll go over the border of the page, setting EdgeResistance
doesn't provide a solution as it allows me to drag windows to the
another page, but it no longer automatically switches pages while
dragging.

Minimum config required to reproduce:
EdgeScroll 0 0

Then resize a window over the border of the page to see the behaviour
I described above.

Is this an unintended side effect of a change that has happened
recently? In any case I'd like to have the old behaviour back. Thomas
already provided me a patch that restores the previous behaviour and,
which I'm sure, he'll be happy to share, but I'd like official word on
this.

Greetings

Hi,

since I could not find examples about controlling KDM from FVWM I
figured it out myself. You can see my results here:

http://arvin.schnell-web.net/linux/kdm-fvwm.html

Maybe you want to include this in your examples distributed with
FVWM or in your FAQ.


This looks like an excellent topic for the FvwmWiki (currently
available via: http://fvwmwiki.bu-web.de, since fvwmwiki.org is still
unreachable), I suggest you add it there as I'm sure quite some people
would find this interesting while I on the other hand don't feel it
belongs in the main FVWM FAQ.

Re: FVWM: focus problem with netbeans

 Using fvwm 2.5.16, netbeans 5.0(RC2) and java 1.5, I can't get Netbeans
 to receive focus when I change to the desktop page it's on. I have to
 first click in the editor window to get focus, whereas with all
 other windows, as I move the mouse pointer over them they
 immediately receive focus.

 Interestingly enough, if I move the mouse out of the netbeans window
 and in again, it loses focus and fails to regain it, except for
 sometimes, when it *does* regain focus, as it should.

 My only focus settings are :

 Style * MouseFocus, GrabFocus

 Are there any other options I could try to get around this, or is this
 more likely a java problem?

I don't think it's a Java problem as I don't experience it and am
using Netbeans 5.0 Beta2, I'm using SloppyFocus though, like this:

Style * SloppyFocus
Style * ClickToFocusRaises
Style * GrabFocusOff

I hope this helps

Oh, but they do, in the top right corner of a post you'll see a quote
button, and it even places your cursor below the post you want to
quote, something various MUAs and Newreaders don't do! ;-)

Regarding the idea of a mailinglist gateway to the forum (or from the
forum, it's just how you look at it) it has been suggested before and
it is indeed possible, I've just not had the time to look into it,
this semester has been excessively heavy but I should have more time
soon so I can play with it on a testserver to see how it turns out.
