Re: fvwm2 probs

[Ric Tibbetts <tibbetts oz net>]

You need to work on two settings in your .fvwm2rc file:

	1)  XORvalue 255 (I have mine at 255 and it works fine)
    
	2) # if the window occupies less than n% of the screen, draw it opaque
	   OpaqueMoveSize 100

	I have mine set to 100, because I WANT it to move the whole window. If
you reduce that to 0-10 (in the very small range) it will move a
highlight frame, and wait until you let go of the mouse to move the
window.

	Should get ya going! Deffinately move up to fvwm2, it's generations
ahead of fvwm.
