Hi, As Jaimos said, geometry window is configurable via new GeometryWindow Position directive, the second one is really not something generally known, and making it both ways doesn't break anything. Weirdness about initial drawing of the wire frame ... I cannot see any difference here. I don't know how it differs. Looks like removal of "Emulate" it doesn't break anything. It can be even conditionally defined like GeometryWindow in configurations which have to support both FVWM2 and FVWM3. -- Miroslav

There is already a new GeometryWindow option which can control the location of the geometry window. So this is now fully configurable outside of the emulate options. > > 2) During an interactive placement, to tell fvwm that you want to >resize the window after placement: > mwm mode: press shift + button 1 > fvwm mode: press button 2 > >=> Just allow both. > Is this configurable via some binding. If not we should make the button for this configurable via a binding, and just choose one for the default behavior that can be changed. > 3) Some weirdness about initial drawing of the wire frame. > >=> Remove that special case.
