Move Application to another page/desktop

Configuration Complex functions
1

Hi,

Im sure this question has been asked befor, but I didn’t found it here, so Im sorry if this is a double post…

I want to be able to sent an application to another page/desktop. At the moment Im choosing “sticky” on the window-menu and change the page with the application, unsticky it, and return to my previous used page.

I already have a menu-point called “Move >” in my menu, but nothing happens when I select it. In the configfile is the line

  • “Move” Popup FvwmMoveMethods

I think I need to “name” my pages that they appear when choosing “move” from the menu.

Can you tell me where to look, or what to do?

Thank you.

See the MoveToPage and MoveToDesk commands. You could script this of course. There’s examples of this on these forums, although I can’t be bothered to look them up.

Yours has GotoPage also – that wasn’t part of the original requirements.
