What version of FvwmIconMan are we speaking of?
I downloaded the latest (v0.9 and I got the v0.9 docs) and still cannot
get this to work. The docs explicitly say that only a vertical arrangement
is supported. I've tried all suggestions and still get a vertical
arrangement (not surprising given the docs). In fact, it doesn't even
like the managergeometry and buttongeometry resources (a scan of the source
reveals that only "geometry" is recognized). I figure you should know best!
Sorry if I am asking such stupid questions here, but this has proven to be
very confusing.
Thanks,
