Leee:
Thanks guys.  I figured the auto fetching would not be the best - only mentioned it because I thought it might be the simplest code change.

Hi Leee
How about this:

Leee:
Big thumbs up on that.  I think that will make it much smoother, especially when using a touchpad (which I try not to do but too often end up doing anyway).

MikeLockmoore:
I wanted to let people know that I've made some nice progress at making the FLWM work better with the fractional scaling (High DPI) functionality of FLTK 1.4, especially if a user configures a non-100% scaling parameter of Xft.dpi in the .Xdefaults configuration file.   Here's a screenshot of my current build of FLWM with the Xft.dpi set to 128.0 (which is 133% bigger than default).  If you don't want to take advantage of the fractional scaling for the window frames, you can leave Xft.dpi set at 96.0.  Whether you scale the frame with Xft.dpi or not, you can still dynamically resize your window contents anytime you want with a hotkey or environment variable as documented earlier.

I've added some smartness to the window management buttons in the frame so that when the frame gets too small for the window title and all of the buttons to fit, one or more of the buttons can be hidden, and if the window gets really small, the title will be clipped.

Thanks to a good suggestion from the FLTK developer Google Group, I was able to resolve the issues with bad window resizing and lack of ability to grab the window frame on all sizes for resizing.

The attached picture is the classic left-side titlebars, but the "topside" version has the same updates.

Unfortunately, not all is well yet... I don't have the main pop-up menu (that you get by clicking on the desktop background) working properly.  Will post again when I have that sorted (hopefully this weekend yet).

Hi MikeLockmoore
Looks good.
