FvwmPager - DeskStyles #1013

Closed somiaj closed 5 months ago

somiaj commented 5 months ago

DeskStyles provide a more standardized way to apply settings to each desktop individually (which can be used both when viewing multiple desks or just viewing only the current active desk). This restructures how to configure setting mostly colorsets settings on a per desk basis. With this the colors of the desktop, active monitors, windows, focus windows, and balloon window can all be configured for individual desktops. This also uses a standardized format to configure all the different colorsets or colors.

# Set a colorset for all desks, both syntax's do the same thing.
*FvwmPager: Colorset 12
*FvwmPager: HilightColorset * 12

To set a configuration for a specific desk, let's say desk 2, provide the desk number as the first parameter.

# Set colorset for desk 2.
*FvwmPager: Colorset 2 14
*FvwmPager: HilightColorset 2 15

The FvwmPager manual page is updated to explain the way to many settings that can be configured. It was also restructured to give some format to the large number of customizable options.

The colors even work when only showing the current desk and CurrentDeskPerMonitor, showing the color of the desktop the respective windows are in.
