FvwmRearrange: Cool animations AND resizing windows

I’ve found somewhere in a config or in the forums (can’t remember) a function for rearranging windows in two columns:

[code]
DestroyFunc Window-Rearrange-Two-Column
AddToFunc Window-Rearrange-Two-Column

  • I All (CurrentPage,!Fvwm*, !gkrellm, !trayer) WindowShade off
  • I Piperead ‘echo FvwmRearrange -tile -animate -resize -mn 2 -m 3p 3p expr $[vp.width] - 3p expr $[vp.height] - 70p’[/code]

It’s quite usefull and I’ve been using it for a while.
When I started to investigate discovered the cool animations that appeared removing “-resize”.

I read in man pages that resize and animate are incompatible functions… but I wanted them together!!!

So tried something quite stupid like this:

[code]
DestroyFunc Window-Rearrange-Two-Column
AddToFunc Window-Rearrange-Two-Column

  • I All (CurrentPage,!Fvwm*, !gkrellm, !trayer) WindowShade off
  • I Piperead ‘echo FvwmRearrange -tile -animate -mn 2 -m 3p 3p expr $[vp.width] - 3p expr $[vp.height] - 70p’
  • I Piperead ‘echo FvwmRearrange -tile -resize -mn 2 -m 3p 3p expr $[vp.width] - 3p expr $[vp.height] - 70p’[/code]
    I hoped to see animations when moving the windows and then just resize all of them without “special effects”.
    But obviously didn’t work.

Is there any way for having animations AND resized windows when rearranging?

No. There, that was an easy answer.
