EdgeResistance


EdgeResistance scrolling moving [xinerama-scrolling]

Tells how hard it should be to change the desktop viewport by moving the mouse over the edge of the screen and how hard it should be to move a window over the edge of the screen.

The first parameter tells how many milliseconds the pointer must spend on the screen edge before fvwm moves the viewport. This is intended for people who use

EdgeScroll 100 100

but find themselves accidentally flipping pages when they do not want to.

The second parameter tells how many pixels over the edge of the screen a window's edge must move before it actually moves partially off the screen. By default the viewport is moved a full page in the requested direction, but if you used EdgeScroll and set any values other than zero they are used instead.

Note that, with

EdgeScroll 0 0

it is still possible to move or resize windows across the edge of the current screen. By making the first parameter to EdgeResistance 10000 this type of motion is impossible. With EdgeResistance less than 10000 but greater than 0 moving over pages becomes difficult but not impossible. See also EdgeThickness.

The optional third parameter does the same as the second, but for individual Xinerama screens. If omitted, xinerama-moving is set to the value of moving. Set xinerama-moving to zero to ignore individual screen edges. Note that the center of the window being moved determines the xinerama screen on which the window should be kept.
