Hi guys,
I have developed a module for/with fvwm 2.4.20 and have it deployed over
1.000 machines, all touchscreen, no keyboard/mouse. Basically its like the
FvwmButtons application.. but it let me create and group buttons.. or have
them floating.
So far, the behavior with the "NeverFocus" style option was... "any button
i click gets activated".. and thats the correct behavior i want.. any
button on the screen that gets clicked.. do its action.
Yesterday i had to do a clean install in an identical machine, but this
time i installed from scratch.. fvwm 2.4.20 same linux as the other
machines....
For my surprise the click/focus behavior is way diff now... everytime i
click something not focused it just do nothing.... removing my mouse
bindinds and using the original fvwm config.... i can see it shows me the
root (builtin) menu... even if i clicked on an app (not focused)
To make things a bit easier to understand... lets say i open 2 "xman" for
example... side to side... if i click on "help" of the first.. it will
just focus it... if i click on "help" of the second.. it will move the
focus to that... not running the option.
That said i tried all documented focus/click options, no love... the point
here is the fvwm versions are the same... configuration ditto... i tried
the default fvwm2rc that comes, same thing... but all the other machines
runs fine, with just the install of app and replacement of system.fvwm2rc
I would like to stay with this fvwm 2.4.20 if possible, as it would be a
hassle to move all machines to 2.5, also... seems just odd that even if i
clone the whole fvwm of a working machine... it insists on not working as
expected.
Any help is appreciated.
best regards from Brazil,
Eric
