My goal is to have all 48x48 icons and avoid maximized windows to cover
them with:
EwmhBaseStruts 0 48 0 0
The curious thing is I'm now using a modified version of fvwm.org FAQ's
Thumbnail function that includes this line:
echo WindowStyle IconOverride, Icon /tmp/icon-$[w.id].png || \
And in this case the trick works. But if I use plain Iconify using i.e.
this style:
Style xboard IconOverride, Icon xboard.png
Xboard obeys the first time after restarting fvwm, but from the second
time I iconify and upwards it insists in loading some big svg file (I
know the simple dirty solution would be to remove that file). I even
tried to fool it with:
Style xboard IconOverride, Icon xboard.svg:48x48
Without success. By the way:
$ grep ImagePath .fvwm/config
ImagePath $HOME/.icons
ImagePath +:$HOME/.icons/fvwm
ImagePath +:$HOME/.icons/fvwm-extra
$ ls .icons/xboard.png
.icons/xboard.png
And I've also tried using "Xboard" like name.
I haven't that problem with mini icons, I've been able to override even
the firefox one using EWMHMiniIconOverride.
