hi everybody,

i've got theme i've made, and it's looking pretty good, except my vwm is always on top, even though i have the alwaysontop no line. what's going on with that? does anyone know what i'm missing? i'm using rabidvwm-1.1.1 and xlabel-3.3 (among other things obviously, but i think that's all that's relevant here). here's what i have:


;vwm


VWMPos 570 13
VWMWidth 160
VWMHeight 28
VWMDesksX 4
VWMDesksY 1
VWMBorder 0 0 0 0
VWMUseInitialDesk
VWMInitialDesk 1
VWMBevel
VWMWinColor EAF0FA
VWMWinBorderColor EAF0FA
VWMTransparent
VWMWinAlpha 110
VWMBackAlpha 110
VWMSelAlpha 110
VWMAlwaysOnTop No

Quite simple really, it should say "False", and not "No".

why would you set it to "No"?

I think rabidvwm is "on bottom" by default, anyway. So the setting isn't needed at all, if I remember right.

i've tried changing it to false, and removing the line altogether, but it still ends up on top. it worked for a minute at first, but not anymore. i don't get it.

check your personal.rc and make sure it isn't defined there.

"false", "no", and "off" are all equivalent for litestep bools everywhere. (anything else is true)

it's not in the personal rc (i mean, vwm is, but not alwaysontop).. is there anywhere else it mite be defined? i got started with omar's installer if that helps.

any file that is included past the step.rc COULD have the setting in it. Odds would be against having the setting in something like systray.rc but anything really is possible.
