- VWM, the virtual screen aware window manager, is a small, fast,
- and system friendly virtual screen aware program that gives you
- 100% control over windows' positions.
-
- VWM features 2 ways of defining the new location for the target
- window, setting an absolute or relative position (Coordinate
- Positioning) or using a preset positioning technique usually
- related to the mouse position (Preset Positioning Techniques).
-
- VWM can force your programs to:
-
- - open their windows in absolute positions related to the start
- point (0x0) of the active screen.
-
- - open their windows in absolute positions but related to the
- point (0x0) of the "active part" of the screen (for virtual
- screens).
-
- - center their windows under the mouse pointer (FollowMouse).
-
- - locate their windows under the mouse pointer but respect the
- view, that is to locate the windows far enough away from the
- closest edges of the visible screen but still under the mouse
- pointer (RespectView).
-
- FollowView(TM), known as RespectView in this program, is
