Dear List,
I have just upgraded my version of FVWM to 2.4.0 and I
have to say that it is awesome. Thank you to everyone
that spends their time contributing to it :-)
I was most intrigued by the "Desker" module. I like
the idea of having a retractable desktop view. My
question concerns this. Before I upgraded,
FvwmButtons, would swallow a 2x2 desktop panel and
place that in
the bottom right-hand corner of my screen.
Is it possible to replace the four desktops which are
currently assigned to FvwmDesker, and make the Desker
module swallow my original 2x2 desktop pane (which is
swallowed by FvwmButtons) and which also takes up the
geometry in the bottom right-hand corner?? I would
also like the side button (the one which retracts and
opens the sliding panel), to take on the height of the
2x2 deskop pane. I have tried everything but I cannot
seem to do it.
My ORIGINAL module code(s) for FvwmPager and
FvwmButtons are included below.
Thanks in Anticipation,
Regards,
Thomas Adam
