I feel that it's time to upgrade my panel, it's been around for awhile now, but I don't know how to do it as I want it or if it's possible. So I thought it might be worth asking in this thread
The panel I have to day are using the shape function with an transparent xpm background, I still want a background like that but I want it to be smaller than the icons on it, so the icons gets outside the top and bottom edge. So is this possible? If so how do I configure it?
TIA |
No, though you can surely fake the borders on the pixmap. Anyway that is for sure the way to do it for kooldock and similar applications, anyway. Usually applications draw always WITHIN their own window, so those borders are always fake borders. |

As I suspected
I'm trying to create fake borders on the pixmap, but the result so far isn't what I had in mind. Take a look here, the borders shows but they're transparent and cutting the icons. I think I need some pointers to make this as I want it 
Here's part of the config for it:
| Code: |
Style "DockBar" !Title, !Handles, Sticky, WindowListSkip, \
CirculateSkip, BorderWidth 0, HandleWidth 0
Colorset 15 RootTransparent, fg rgb:00/00/00, bg rgb:ff/ff/ff, \
Shape DockBG-mini.xpm, Tint white 40, bgTint white 40
Colorset 16 RootTransparent, fg rgb:00/00/00, bg rgb:ff/ff/ff, \
Tint white 40, bgTint white 40, RootTransparent |
If you need more please tell

Mmm, fvwm cannot display an arbitrary part of the pixmap over the icons (nor the pixmap itself as a whole). Your only bet is to continue faking the fake, and hardcode the border in the icons. You will need to hardcode it twice or three time for different icon size if you plan to use Icon, ActiveIcon and PressIcon to fake a zooming/click effect. |

I don't really know how to do that, I really need some guidance if you will do that. Thanks

Make three copies of the icons, one at 48x48, two at 64x64. Let's call them icon.png, activeicon.png and pressicon.png. Leave the icons in icon.png and activeicon.png centered as they are, edit pressicon.png and move the icon 2 pix to the rigth and 2 pix to the bottom, so it is like activeicon.png but a bit moved to the bottom-right corner.
Now edit the three icons and hardcode the border into them, you might need to try some times until the line is at the right place. Then, in the panel you would use such thing like this:
| Code: |
*FvwmFoo: (1x1, Icon icon.png, \
ActiveIcon activeicon.png, \
PressIcon pressicon.png, \
Action .......)
|
Then, goto [ code ] and repeat for each icon in FvwmFoo  P |

Thank you
Oh my, that's going to take quite awhile, haha, I'll look into it during the weekend
Thanks again

Well I found that out, would have been great though
But changing some icons and adding the pager to the existing one made me feel satisfied with it anyway. I just love how configurable and powerful Fvwm is in a quite logical way. At least it's logical after reading a bit from the man and some from the forums
Thanks for your answers

| I've just installed weechat and realized that a lot of the key presses use the alt key, which will be a problem since a lot of my fvwm keys also use alt. I could just change all the default keys inside weechat to prevent the conflict, but I can see this being a tedious, recurring process for quite a few programs. Is there a way to pass the keys directly to a program without fvwm acting on it? |

Hmm? That's only a problem if you've bound something like: "Alt 1" in FVWM, but then that would just be silly without an additional modifier, for instance, since more than weechat would complain.

I am not sure what you're asking. Key-bindings are always greedy with respect to the window manager unless you want to use window-specific key-bindings which is what you will have to do anyway if you want the event to propagatw down to the application anyway, although this is a moot issue, surely? Just because you can use, for instance, "Alt 1" to switch to window 1, or "Alt left-arrow" to switch to the previous window within weechat, unless you have told FVWM to capture those key-presses for itself, then there won't be any conflicts.

| Well, I have a lot more fvwm functions than usual so there does arise instances where I have already told fvwm to capture key presses for itself. Just today, I went to scroll the window of weechat (bound to alt-n) but I forgot that alt-n is also my play bind for mpd in my fvwm config. The music blasted out full volume through my headphones and I got a fright. Now, if I had a function along the lines of - always disable fvwm binds when weechat is focused - that little surprise wouldn't have happened. So, I want a function that temporarily disabled fvwm binds, but only while a specified application (weechat) is focused. Prefarably I would only want to disable some binds so I could still alt-tab out and not have to use the mouse. |

This will come along and bite you in the arse -- I really don't recommend it.

I alluded to it in my last post, you want something like this:
| Code: |
Key (weechat) 1 A M --
|
Where "weechat" is the name of the xterm or whatever terminal emulator you use that has weechat running in it.

i have asked this on another thread, but here goes :
setup sloppyFocus to raise windows which get mouse focus and dont move to new window coming in AND ignore transcient windows
< works fine for most things>
but,
a) compile firefox with restrict-javascript and moznopango ===> download dialog GETS focussed, when i download from a second link.
b) works fine without those use flags!!
thats wierd. how could a app-use flag determine WM's behaviour? and yes! WM_transcient is not reported right here.

Can you be more specific by what you mean by this? What does xprop say about this download dialog? (Hint: The output would be useful).

sry, i dont have the xprop info from the other compilation (with no use flags). but i can re-compile if really needed.
thanks,

EDIT : see that | Code: | | WM_HINTS(WM_HINTS): Client accepts input or input focus: True |
i think is what is bothering me |

As expected, none of those windows are transient, which makes me suspect you have a Style line in your config which is matching.

but my concern is : if i remove those 2 USE flags, there is no focus problem. either way, can u suggest a style-line that could avoid this problemo?
thanks a gazzillion

I have no idea -- not even running Gentoo. You'd probably have to compare xprop outputs, but as a stop-gap, try:
| Code: |
Style Downloads !FPFocusByProgram

I'm using fvwm-menu-directory to browse my home directory, but subdirectories aren't expanded. They show up on the menu, but you can't navigate into them. Is there a way to make this happen?
Here is my code:
| Code: |
AddToFunc FuncFvwmHomeDirectory
+ I PipeRead "fvwm-menu-directory -d '$0' --exec-file '^rox' --links --order 5 --wm-icons"
..
DestroyMenu Filemanagement
AddToMenu Filemanagement MissingSubmenuFunction FuncFvwmHomeDirectory
+ "&Home" Popup $[HOME]

I've been reading through the manpage but don't see the solution. Thanks! |

It works, with one modification:

becomes | Code: | | --exec-file ^rox --exec-title ^launcher |

Thanks! |
You don't need ^launcher at all, and it shows you're not understanding the syntax at all. ^launcher is my choice for what happens when I click on a menu title -- you won't have that installed, so you can remove "--exec-title ^launcher" altogether.

Yeah, I'm having trouble understanding what everything means here.
I was wondering which launcher it referred to. One of the results from emerge -s launcher, I presume? |

I have no idea, since I wouldn't touch Gentoo with a barge pole. If that launcher is a Tk application then I would assume so, yes.
