First I get inconvenience when start using gmrun (Win+R like in Windows app which prompt command to execute with completion).
But I found annoying to move mouse or to switch focus by 'FocusWindow' (Alt+TAB) to 'gmrun' app. I have same issue when call "Save as..." and "Open file..." like dialog in Firefox, etc. So I read manual and FAQ. FAQ was useful: http://www.fvwm.org/documentation/faq/?theme=default#3.18 When my specific window (or all windows) pops up, I want it to get focus/be moved/be resized/be closed/be shaded... How? I repeat most exactly: *FvwmEvent-NewWindow: Cmd *FvwmEvent-NewWindow: PassId *FvwmEvent-NewWindow: StartDelay 10 *FvwmEvent-NewWindow: add_window MyFuncFocusWindow DestroyFunc MyFuncFocusWindow AddToFunc MyFuncFocusWindow + I FlipFocus + I WarpToWindow 50 50 AddToFunc StartFunction I Module FvwmEvent AddToFunc StartFunction I FvwmEvent FvwmEvent-NewWindow So now any new window automatically get focus. Does this setting provide behaviour same as in Windows? That part of desktop environment responsible for such behaviour (I am noob, is it session manager or windows manager or what)? ================================================================ I try to break this solution by: $ xterm $ xmessage Hi $ /usr/lib/notification-daemon/notification-daemon & $ notify-send -t 10 Hi After xmessage I lose focus, but after notify-send not. Why? How can I control this by styling in Fvwn and programmatically in C lang? ================================================================ I use: Style "*" SloppyFocus, MouseFocusClickRaises for 4 year and now would like to hear what other people use to improve my interaction with PC... Thanks in any advice! ================================================================ For whose interesting how I setup 'gmrun' as in Windows: $ cat ~/.fvwm/config Key R A 3 Exec exec gmrun $ cat ~/.xinitrc xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc $ cat ~/.xmodmaprc ! Win key. clear mod3 clear mod4 keycode 133 = Super_L ! keycode 134 = Multi_key ! keycode 134 = Super_R keycode 134 = Hyper_R add mod3 = Super_L add mod4 = Hyper_R -- Best regards!
