fvwmanimate(1): Fvwm Animate module - Linux man page

NAME

FvwmAnimate - the Fvwm Animate module

SYNOPSIS

FvwmAnimate is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invocation will work. From within the .fvwm2rc file, FvwmAnimate is spawned as follows:

Module FvwmAnimate

or from within an fvwm pop-up menu:

DestroyMenu Module-Popup
AddToMenu   Module-Popup "Modules" Title
+ "Fvwm Animate Icons" Module FvwmAnimate OptionalName

DESCRIPTION

The FvwmAnimate module animates iconification and de-iconification or on command. There are currently 6 different animation effects.

INVOCATION

No command line invocation is possible. FvwmAnimate must be invoked by the fvwm window manager. When invoked with the OptionalName argument, the OptionalName is used to find configuration commands, configuration files, and name the internally generated menus and forms instead of "FvwmAnimate". During startup, FvwmAnimate defines menus and forms for configuring and controlling FvwmAnimate. The default menu name is "MenuFvwmAnimate" and the form name is "FormFvwmAnimate". If the optional name is used, the menu would be "Menu<OptionalName>" and the form would be "Form<OptionalName>".

Assuming you already had a builtin menu called "Module-Popup", you could use FvwmAnimate by configuring it like this:

AddToFunc "StartFunction" "I" Module FvwmAnimate
AddToMenu "Module-Popup" "Control Animation" Popup MenuFvwmAnimate
