mouse bindings - fvwm prob

**pbharris** · 09-17-2003, 05:03 AM

Okay - here are my mouse bindings - the issue is that my middle button does not paste... it working fine in fvwm 2.4, but 2.5.x has given me problems. one thing i have found is that copy and paste from the menu works...

ideas?

Code:

# Leave mouse button 2 (middle button) unbound for stroke support,

I just pasted the entire config section to an FvwmConsole (and have a hard time navigating my desktop now

) and copy and paste works. I use sloppy focus but also tried ClickToFocus (with and without ClickToFocusPassesClickOff).

The mailing list archive doesn't say anything about this issue neither does the Bug tracking system. I'm afraid atm the only thing I can suggest is to get the latest snapshot.

edit:
I just tried your entire config file (last changed July, 6th) and copy and past works. It's gotta be a bug in 2.5.7 then.

Okay - thanks - i will grab off a snapshot and see what happens. i am mistified that this other binding worked, i wonder if strokes is messing it up...
