Re: [Foxgui-users]FXTopWindow's title bar

[Davy D. <dd...@ne...>]

   Well, I've tried it in Enlightenment and KDE, but neither will add resize
borders to my instantiated FXTopWindow, it's like the hints are ignored all
together... In fact, DECOR_NONE yeilds exactly the same decorations as
DECOR_ALL...

   Perhaps I'll trace into the fox code to see what's actually happening...
