Finally, I have succeeded using one of the methods described in the faq #3.18. On the other hand, after some struggle, I have compiled the peksystray and got it running. However, the program doesn't function properly in my hands: after the icon appears in the peksystray window it doesn't go away after quiting the sylpheed. Strange, but probably not fvwm-related...

FVWM: tray icon placement
Hi, I have a problem forcing a so-called tray icon generated by a program to appear at desired coordinates on a screen. The case involves sylpheed mail client (run on fvwm ver. 2.5.10) and its plugin, which displays a tray icon informing about mail box status. Because, I don't have a tray, the icon pop ups on the left upper corner of the screen. My question is if there is any method/function in the fvwm, which can force this icon to appear at specified coordinates? Sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find an answer either in google or in the fvwm faq. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Re: FVWM: Tray icon
I really don't know what you mean with docking applications. I meant an application requesting to put itself in the system tray. cheers, Remko -- Visit the official FVWM web page at URL: http://www.fvwm.org/.

Other times, FvwmButtons seems to want to swallow it, but it can't, and a press on the button times out. I had all these problems when enabling 'docking' in Psi, and i would like to know if it's due to Psi, due to FVWM, or due to the fact that it's just not nice to dock applications when there is no real system tray and that swallowing docking applications in panels is also a no-do. I really don't know what you mean with docking applications. FvwmButtons handles everything about swallowing itself, and the application should not even know about it. I think GNOME and KDE taskbars/panels define their own docking protocol, but that is not supported in any way by fvwm. Docking suggests that the application asks the container to swallow it, but that can not be done with FvwmButtons. You must reserve space for the application in the FvwmButtons config. Does that answer your questions? Ciao Dominik ^_^ ^_^ -- Visit the official FVWM web page at URL: http://www.fvwm.org/.
