Pardon me if this has been addressed before, but... I notice that if - I have declared a particular window as sticky via the .tvtwmrc file and - I have pre-assigned geometry (size and location) for that window and - My screen display is not displaying the "home" position, i.e. not in the upper left-hand corner of the virtual desktop then the window gets located off the physical screen, and not anywhere in the virtual desktop. That means I can't ever see it or manipulate it with the mouse. When I pan to the home position, the elusive window flashes up very briefly as the screen is redrawn, but that's it. If I iconify and de-iconify it, my cursor jumps to one of the edges of the physical screen as though trying to warp to the window that's off in never-never land. Aside from bringing this to the attention of those who may be working on tvtwm, I'm wondering if there is a way to manipulate such a window without the mouse, i.e. I'm looking for some way to modify its geometry parameters to bring it back to the world of the living. -Henning -- Henning Pangels Research Programmer Field Robotics Center hmp@frc2.frc.ri.cmu.edu Robotics Institute (412) 268-7088 Carnegie-Mellon University
