All # of the menus get the '*' by default. (you can change the menu style a menu # uses with the 'changemenustyle' option) # # Here we set the default menu-style: # # Background sets the default menu background color # # ActiveFore sets the foreground color of the currently selected menu-item # # ForeGround sets the foreground color of non-selected menu-items # # Popupoffset sets the offset of child-menus. # Format: Popupoffset pixels percent # We set the percent to 100, making the child-menus pop-up to the right # of the existing menus. # # MenuFace sets the background of the menu using the 'fancy' options. # Menuface is another complicated one so again, check the man-page, # but I'll explain the one here: # This menuface command sets the background of the menus to a # Horizontal gradient using 64 colors, with one pair of colors, # from the color #758591 to the color #102030. # # Animation turns menu animations on. If you pop-up a submenu on the right # edge of the screen, the menu will move over so it is fully visible. # MenuStyle * background #455561, ActiveFore #ccfcf0, ForeGround black MenuStyle * popupoffset 0 100 MenuStyle * MenuFace HGradient 64 1 #758591 100 #102030, Animation # Set up some desktop options # # Desktop [Horizontal]x[vertical] Defines the virtual desktop size, # 1x1 = one physical screen size (no virtual desktop DesktopSize 1x1 # EdgeResistance scrolling moving # Sets how hard it is to change the desktop viewport # scrolling is in milliseconds # moving is in pixels (how far a window's edge must move to move off-screen # # These values don't much matter in this configuration as our viewport # is only as big as our screen anyway.
