Ah, I see what you mean now. I copied the output from a window which was
at that moment in a normal position inside the page. It only misbehaves
when there is not enough room.
Here is the output from a window that crosses the page border:
[FVWM][__explain_placement]: placed new window 0x2a0008e 'BitTorrent T-0.3.15
(BitTornado) download':
desk 0 (current desk)
current page
screen: current screen: 1280 0 1280x1024 (current screen)
position 2158 25, placed by fvwm (normal placement)
placement method: MinOverlapPercent

My problem: most windows behave correctly but some applications open
their windows partly in the next page, which is not what I want.
Examples are: btdownloadgui.bittornado, seahorse (the enter passphrase
dialog) and gmpc.
I use Xinerama with DesktopSize 4x1 and MinOverlapPercentPlacement
style. Could MinOverlapPercentPlacement be the problem?
