I have just downloaded and installed 2.5.10, and it's now working. I
have a visually-reasonabl;e static offset set up as follows:
DestroyFunc SendWindowToPage
AddToFunc SendWindowToPage
+ I SetEnv LAST_WIN_ID $[w.id]
+ I . FvwmButtons -g 144x96+%{ $[pointer.x]-34
}%+%{ $[pointer.y]-24 }% -transient GridButtons
However, I'd LIKE to be able to make the button panel position itself
such that the pointer is on the button corresponding to the current
page. To do that, however, I need to retrieve the current page. I know
I can retrieve the current *desk* thropugh the variable desk.n, so I
guessed page.n but found my guess was wrong.
Is there such a variable, and if so, what is it? Where can I find
documentation of all the available variables?
