I am not sure why it is named standard, "minimal" would be a better name. The minimal defaults (when there is no configuration at all) are not supposed to be fully featured or convinient, just to have move and resize. > has changed, i.e.: windows are not moved when pressing mouse button 1 > in the side-bars, but resizing starts. I want to have the standard > behavior (i.e., move the window, resizing only when in the corner > frame pieces). How do I get this using my .fvwm2rc config file? The behaviour that you describe, i.e. the mouse button 1 resizes a window anywhere on the frame is pretty standard. At least that is what I saw in most of window manager configurations including fvwm and (tried in Xnest) the default configurations of mwm, sawfish, enlightenment, wmaker, icewm. I suggest you to add a window move by binding it to mouse button 2. You may add these or similar lines to your ~/.fvwm/.fvwm2rc: Mouse 1 SF A Resize Mouse 2 SF A Move Here is an example of some more featured window frame bindings: Mouse 1 SF A ResizeOrRaiseOrShade Mouse 1 T A MoveOrRaiseOrShade Mouse 2 SF A MoveOrRaiseLower Mouse 2 T A MoveOrRaiseLower AddToFunc ResizeOrRaiseOrShade + H Resize + M Resize + C Raise + D WindowShade AddToFunc MoveOrRaiseOrShade + H Move + M Move + C Raise + D WindowShade AddToFunc MoveOrRaiseLower + H Move + M Move + C RaiseLower Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
