As title said. "Style appname PositionPlacement Center" does not work right anymore.

fvwm3 1.0.5 (1.0.4-115-g6b5f3661)
with support for: ReadLine, XPM, PNG, SVG, Shape, XShm, SM, Bidi text, XRandR, XRender, XCursor, XFT, NLS

Expected Behaviour

Placed in the center of the current monitor which holds the mouse pointer.

Actual Behaviour

Placed in the "real" center - between two monitors.

See pic example attached.

Steps to reproduce with plain default FVWM setup:

  1. Copy /share/fvwm3/default-config as ~/.fvwm
  2. Edit ~/.fvwm/config, add Module FvwmMFL into StartFunction
  3. Login to this session / start fvwm with this config
  4. In one terminal window, enable the second screen and restart fvwm:
xrandr --output Virtual-1 --mode 1400x1050 --primary --output Virtual-2 --mode 1400x1050 --right-of Virtual-1
FvwmCommand Restart

Replace RandR names of the monitors above with you actual names.

Then, configure xterm to have Style PositionPlacement Center and start it:

FvwmCommand 'Style XTerm PositionPlacement Center'
xterm &

Xterm will appear between two monitors, in the real center instead of center of the current monitor.

The same behaviour can be observer while calling Quit from the menu: Quit form will appear between two monitors.
Latest release behaves well BTW.

This bug has been fixed by Dominik Vogt: 44e21c5 in the master

Quote:

Yes, now it works. So you replaced $[w.screen] with ... something as I see
in git diff. Is it [c]urrent or is it aware if it should start on exact
screen?

It uses the window's screen which has already been set by the time
the window is placed.
