I think that it would be something like this, but the expressions don't evaluate and I'm not sure that this is proper syntax.
AddToFunc MoveWindowOnScreen + I WindowId $0 ($[w.x] < 0) MoveToLeft + I WindowId $0 (($[w.x] + $[w.width]) > $[vp.width]) MoveToRight + I WindowId $0 ($[w.y] < 0) MoveToTop + I WindowId $0 (($[w.y] + $[w.height]) > $[vp.height]) MoveToBottom -------------------------------------------------------------------------- FvwmEvent is a good suggestion. I have figured out how to create functions to move a window to the screen edge, but is there a way to check where the window is and run the appropriate command based on its location? I have figured out some functions, but I don't know how to implement MoveWindowOnScreen. Can someone give me advice?

Okay, it does not know the size of the decorations beforehand, but it could at least make sure that the window stays almost on screen.
