One of my buttons is defined with the following action
Action `Popup Rxvts`
The pop-up defined in my .fvwmrc is as follows
AddToMenu Rxvts "Rxvts"*rxvt_but.xpm* Title
+ "&QTerm"%x_mico.xpm% Exec
/home/imc/bin/rxvt -pixmap /home/imc/nwrm/pics/pixmaps/qdigi.xpm
-scale T -title "$HOST : QuakeTerm" -n QTerm -geometry 80x45 &
+ "&AlienTerm"%x_mico.xpm% Exec
/home/imc/bin/rxvt -pixmap /home/imc/nwrm/pics/pixmaps/alien01.xpm
-scale T -title "$HOST : AlienTerm" -n AlienTerm -geometry 80x25 &
+ "D&MTerm"%x_mico.xpm% Exec
/home/imc/bin/rxvt -pixmap /home/imc/nwrm/pics/pixmaps/dmlogo.xpm
-scale T -title "$HOST : DMTerm" -n DM -geometry 80x32 &
+ "&DeadTerm"%x_mico.xpm% Exec
/home/imc/bin/rxvt -pixmap /home/imc/nwrm/pics/pixmaps/dead01.xpm
-scale T -title "$HOST : DeadTerm" -n Deadlock -geometry 80x32 &
+ "&TestTerm"%x_mico.xpm% Exec
/home/imc/bin/rxvt -pixmap /home/imc/nwrm/pics/pixmaps/tcf.xpm -scale
T -title "$HOST : TestTerm" -n TestTerm -geometry 80x32 &
+ "&EliteTerm"%x_mico.xpm% Exec
/home/imc/bin/rxvt -pixmap /home/imc/nwrm/pics/pixmaps/Elite.xpm
-scale T -title "$HOST : EliteTerm" -n EliteTerm -geometry 80x32 &
(though obviously this has wrapped around a bit in the mail)
So when I click on the rxvt button a menu pops up. When I select an
rxvt or I click elsewhere it goes away again.
If you get rid of the text you can just have a menu full of pixmaps
which will look a lot like a button bar.

No, sorry. At the moment there is no StartsOnPage in the standard
release of FVWM. (Please Chuck, stick it the next one... ;) ) so this
is not possible.
