opening Panels from FvwmButtons - mouse association

Configuration General Questions
1

Hi,

It appears that panels are opened from FvwmButtons by clicking either of rght/left/middle mouse button.

Is there a way to change this behavior and have the panel operational after say right click with left and middle click associated to different actions?

Thanks

Henoch

Haven’t tried it with panels but with buttons you can do it like so]
Action (mouse 0|1|2|3)
[/code]
To disable a mouse button]
Action (mouse 0|1|2|3) Nop
[/code].
Here’s an example from my config]*HorizontalPanel: (2x1, Colorset 13, ActionOnPress,
Icon icon_fns.svg:24x24,
ActiveIcon icon_fns.svg:24x24,
Action(Mouse 1) Menu MenuRoot)[/code]
Hope this helps

Hi Thomas,

It does help partially!

For Panel button I am able to set a mouse bindings as “Nop” to one of 4 mouse keys as suggested.
This way, by elimination I can leave one(or more) button to open a panel.

However, my real intention was to be able to start two or more different panels from the same button by different mouse clicks. I think this is not possible at the moment. Correct me if I’m wrong!

Thanks

H.

This is Possible like :

*FvwmButtons:(Action (Mouse 1) “CommandHere”, Action (Mouse 2) “CommandHere”, Action (Mouse 3) “CommandHere”)

When a buttonbox config line begins with brackets, that means a button will be created. Inside those brackets, any options can be specified, some even multiple times. Here i have used the “Action” option 3 times, all using the “Mouse n” option. This also applies with Panels.
