• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jeff Mitchell 2003-09-01 10:01:42 UTC]

I have fixed Shawn Singh's windows snapping patch so that
it works for fluxbox-0.1.14. Please add it to files/ and
ebuild.

oops I got a bugzilla error submitting the first attachment, so I
didn't realize it was submitted.  Both attachments are identical.

update: compensating for other patches recently committed

cd /usr/portage/x11-wm/fluxbox
patch -p1 < winsnap.patch

Please commit this.  It's very small, and it's identical to the original window

snapping patch except for trivial context changes.

In ~/.fluxbox/init,

session.screen0.windowSnapThreshold:	10

for window snapping of 10 pixels.

One of our goals is, to distribute all software 'as is' whenever possible. A patch like this _might_ be nice to have for the one or the other, but it's not needed for any functionallity.

Instead you should try to get it to the fluxbox devs.
I haven't tested the patch, also it looks okay. So you might try to contact the devs at fluxbox.org, or just leave me a message and i'll contact them about it.
