Subject: fvwm2: Can't specifiy colors for iconified programs
Date: Thu, 17 Jul 1997 15:47:27 -0500
Package: fvwm2
Version: 2.0.45-BETA-4

The iconified program use the default colors for normal windows, EXCEPT they
ignore the TitleStyle!  So, because the title style may change the
background for the title bar, the colors may look good for normal windows
but may be totally unreadable for icons.

Hmm, as you say, this is indeed a problem.  It's not clear what the
correct solution is.

Using the titlestyle for the icon background is likely to be quite
computationally expensive.  Maybe having a separate specification of
the icon colour would help.

I will forward your problem to the fvwm-workers mailing list.

Thanks,
Austin
