window button will be exactly width pixels wide and height pixels high.
This includes titles drawn at the top, but not the separate title window
created by SeparateButtonTitle. If either width or height is less than

cursor.
- CursorFore
-

- DefaultFrame "name"

different framing for any window, you need to specify it in the database
file using the Frame keyword.
- DefaultStyle "style_name"
-
Specifies the MyStyle to use when no style has been
specifically defined for a given situation. Note that if a style named
"default" has been defined and DefaultStyle has not, the
"default" style will be used as the default.
- DeskBack desk# "name"
-
Specifies what background to use for desk#. "name"
can be either image filename in double-quotes, or the name of background
definition (see MyBackground definition for details).
- DontAnimateBackground
-
disables non-blocking root background changing of full-screen
backgrounds, that looks like slow animation. This is recommended for
fast machines.
- DontDrawBackground

If specified, will not display background image, use this with
xearth or xfishtank.
- DrawMenuBorders 0|1|2
-
Specifies the look of the (start)menu. Using 0 will draw the
menu with no border on either the menu label or menu item por- tions.
Using 1 will draw a border around each menu label and around the menu
item. Using 2 will drawn a border around the menu label and the entire
menu item list. The border colors are calculated from the BackColor
under MyStyle menu_item of the look.name. The "hilight" (top
& left) color is one half lighter than the BackColor color and the
"shadow" (bottom & right) is one half darker than the
BackColor color. If the BackColor color is black, the color grey is
used.
- FWindowStyle "style_name"
-
Specifies the MyStyle to use for the focused window
decorations.
- IconBox left top right bottom
-
Specifies a region of the screen in which to place iconified
windows. Up to four icon boxes can be defined. If an IconBox is
provided, icons will automatically be placed in them, if possible.
Otherwise, they will be placed in the upper left corner of the screen.
Each time a window is iconified, a new place is found for it, unless the
icon has been moved manually. An available space is searched for from
left to right, then top to bottom. Icons will not be automatically
placed on top of other icons, but they may be placed underneath
application windows if StubbornIconPlacement has not been specified. If
left or right is negative, then AfterStep will add the screen width to
it. If top or bottom is negative, then AfterStep will add the screen
height to it. Note that -0 is not parsed as the right or bottom pixel on
the screen. Use -1 instead. The IconBox will normally be filled from
left to right, then top to bottom. However, if the right edge of the
IconBox is closer to the right edge of the screen than the left edge of
the IconBox is to the left edge of the screen, then it will be filled
from right to left. Similarly for top to bottom. For example, "2 2
-1 -1" will result in an IconBox which fills from right to left,
then bottom to top.
- IconsGrowVertically
-
Specifies that the Iconbox(es) should be filled vertically
first.
- KillBackgroundThreshold size
-

out of focus its titlebar will be rendered using MenuTitleStyle.

may not see any difference for some of this values.

longer to load over a network.
- MenuNoBalloons
-
FIXME: add proper description here.
- MenuPinOn pixmap_name
-
MenuPinOn is deprecated and AfterStep will reinterpret it, and
it will create new TitleButton using last unused TitleButton context. It
will then assign PinMenu function to this button. This button will only
be shown on titlebars belonging to menu windows. This button behaves
just like any other TitleButton - for example you can use
TitleButtonOrder to specify where it should go. Problem is you may not
know what context AfterStep had chosen for it. The better way would be
to explicitly define TitleButton, and assign PinMenu to it in your
feel.
- MenuStippleCompositionMethod 130-145

This is a funny feature - try it and see how you like
different values :) If you use shades of grey for your item text - you

- MenuStippleStyle "style_name"
-
Specifies the MyStyle to use for stippled menu items.
- MenuSubItemStyle "style_name"
-
AfterStep now includes this new feature: when you select an
item from the menu - this item will be marked as recently used, and next
time the menu is opened it will show all the recently used items from
its SUBMENU. For exmaple you do :
Menu->Applications->rxvt
Next time you open the Main menu, it will display rxvt just
under the "Applications" item with some offset.
It looks much better when this subitems are shown with
different (smaller ) font. To achive that - specify a MyStyle with
asmaller font using the MenuSubItemStyle option in your look file.
This feature could be turned off or altered by using the
RecentSubmenuItems option in your feel file: set it to 0 to disable this
feature.
