Hi, I understand your problem, but no why it happends. Is very interesting. In the code for menu, wmaker creates a WRect, and check the position. If is outside, move it inside. In the code for icons, wmaker creates a WArea, and check the position. If is outside, move it inside. If is wrong for icons, should be wrong for menu (or the functions are different and one is wrong). Ok, some questions. 1. Are you using Xinerama or Virtual desktop (I think yes). 2. Did you try with xrand? Can you try xrand, si something like (copy as script, or run it): ----------------8<---------------- #!/bin/bash xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1280x800 xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1920x1200 xrandr --output VGA1 --left-of LVDS1 ----------------8<---------------- I am running xrandr here without problems. You need restart windowmaker to move the icons to the right position. Then: 3. Is ok with xrandr? Then, we will continue :-) Cheers. -- ||// //\\// Rodolfo "kix" Garcia ||\\// //\\ http://www.kix.es/ -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
