Fvwm95: FvwmTaskBarAutoHide problems

[Benno Overeinder <bjo@wins.uva.nl>]

Hi,

I am using the Fvwm95 window manager and has enabled the infamous
FvwmTaskBarAutoHide option.

With Debian 1.3, the Fvwm95 taskbar appeared automagically if the
mouse hits the bottom of a virtual desktop (i.e., generated a certain
event which made the taskbar to be raised).  However, if the virtual
desktop is one of the lower most of the desktops (i.e, with
DeskTopSize 3x2, the lower three), the specific event is not generated
and the taskbar did not appear.

With the Fvwm95 distribition that comes with Debian 2.0, this problem
is solved, that is, in the lower virtual desktops the taskbar appears
without any problems.  But now the taskbar appears in the other
virtual desktops very slowly and in steps.  The mouse changes from
shape each time the taskbar raises with a step, as if a series of X
events are necessary to raise the taskbar instead of a single event.

Has someone else seen this problem, or knows a solution to this
stammering taskbar?

Bye,

-- Benno
