fvwm2 is, of course the window manager but its' documentation include
customization of the windows appearing on the x-display so managed.

There is PLENTY of documentation about the underlying X system (see
xbooks for example) but that is of little use to most people.

You might want to install and look at the dotfile generator program.  It
has documentation about configuring the behaviour and appearance of
windows on the x-display (just be prepared to experiment quite a bit).

I don't know about question 1 as I have not tried to use that capability
but suspect that there is a parameter in fvwm2's configuration that
determine if 'out of bounds' geometry gets mapped to the 'current' page
or not.
