[Fluxbox-users] What does this mean??

[Frank McCormick]

I have been using FB on an off now for a couple of months and something
this week caught my attention.
In the configure menu there is an item called "ignore resize increment"...
what the **** does that mean??? I have turned it on and off but
it doesn't seem to make any difference in windows.


Thanks

I believe this is to do with when you maximize terminal windows and the
like as they provide resize increments (I don't know how they do
this). Try resizing a terminal and you'll see it "jump" in size
increments, the size of the font you use.

Having said all that, I have never noticed a difference with it on or
not myself (I have it on). Presumably though, if it's on, windows
will always maximize to your entire screen (slit etc settings aside)
but if it's off, it will maximize to the largest possible, whilst
still taking into account the window's preferred stepping size (in the
case of a terminal, that's the size of it's characters).
