########################################################################### # Set up the major operating modes # ######################## FOCUS STUFF ############################## # Set windows to auto-raise after 750 milliseconds if you like it. # Autoraise can sometimes obscure pop-up windows. Performance is now # similar to olvwm's auto-raise feature. #AutoRaise 750 # Normally, we'll be in focus-follows mouse mode, but uncomment this # for mwm-style click-to-focus #ClickToFocus ######################## ICON STUFF ############################## # Auto Place Icons is a nice feature.... # This creates two icon boxes, one on the left side, then one on the # bottom. Leaves room in the upper left for my clock and xbiff, # room on the bottom for the Pager. #IconBox -150 90 -5 -140 #IconBox 5 -140 -140 -5 IconBox -70 1 -1 -140 # If you uncomment this, and make sure that the WindowList is bound to # something, it works pretty much like an icon manager. #SuppressIcons # StubbornIcons makes icons de-iconify into their original position on the # desktop, instead of on the current page. #StubbornIcons # With AutoPlacement, icons will normally place themselves underneath active # windows. This option changes that. #StubbornIconPlacement # If you want ALL you icons to follow you around the desktop (Sticky), try # this #StickyIcons ######################## MWM EMULATION ####################### # # My feeling is that everyone should use MWMDecorHints and MWMFunctionHints, # since some applications depend on having the window manager respect them # MWMFunction hints parses the function information in the MOTIF_WM_HINTS # property, and prohibits use of these functions on the window. Appropriate # portions of the window decorations are removed. MWMFunctionHints # MWM is kinda picky about what can be done to transients, and it was keeping # me from iconifying some windows that I like to iconify, so here's an # over-ride that will allow me to do the operation, even tough the menu # item is shaded out. MWMHintOverride # MWMDecor hints parses the decoration information in the MOTIF_WM_HINTS # property, and removes these decoratons from the window. This does not affect # the functions that can be performed via the menus. MWMDecorHints # These are affect minor aspects for the look-and-feel. # Sub-menus placement mwm-style? # MWMMenus # mwm-style border reliefs (less deep than default fvwm) ? # MWMBorders # Maximize button does mwm-inversion thingy # MWMButtons ######################## MISCELLANEOUS STUFF ####################### # If you don't like the default 150 msec click delay for the complex functions # change this and uncomment it. # ClickTime 150 # OpaqueMove has a number (N) attached to it (default 5). # if the window occupies less than N% of the screen, # then opaque move is used. 0 <= N <= 100 # OpaqueMove 100 # flip by whole pages on the edge of the screen. EdgeScroll 100 100 # A modest delay before flipping pages seems to be nice... # I thresh in a 50 pixel Move-resistance too, just so people # can try it out. EdgeResistance 250 5 ######################## WINDOW PLACEMENT ####################### # RandomPlacement prevents user interaction while placing windows: RandomPlacement # SmartPlacement makes new windows pop-up in blank regions of screen # if possible, or falls back to random or interactive placement. SmartPlacement # With SmartPlacement, windows will normally place themselves over icons. # Uncomment this to change that. #StubbornPlacement # NoPPosition instructs fvwm to ignore the PPosition field in window # geometry hints. Emacs annoyingly sets PPosition to (0,0)! NoPPosition ######################## DECORATIONS ####################### # If you want decorated transient windows, uncomment this: #DecorateTransients ########################################################################### # Set up the virtual desktop and pager #set the desk top size in units of physical screen size DeskTopSize 2x2 # and the reduction scale used for the panner/pager DeskTopScale 32
