I do exactly that in my modified awol theme for fvwm-themes but it's a
little complicated. You can grab my theme for an example from
http://awol.dyn.mpis.net/fvwm/testing/ft-modified-awol-0.6.x.tar.gz and
look at the awol/modules/main file therein and the section marked
"Modules menu functions".
What it does is popup a different menu depending on which pixmap is
displayed, and a right click pops up a menu to change the pixmaps. It
needs to kill the FvwmButtons and start it again with the new pixmap,
but hey... It works for me! :)
