RE: Rootless: how to get wm menu?

[Randall R Schulz <rrschulz at cris dot com>]

Hi,

And the F12 and all other keyboard bindings are configurable, of course.

Also, F11 brings up the WindowMaker windows menu.

On a related topic:

I just tried to get window cycling to work, but changing the configured key 
sequence doesn't seem to work. I used the "Capture" button to change the 
"Focus next window" and "Focus previous window" to CTRL-TAB and 
CTRL-SHIFT-TAB, resp. The WMaker options dialog reports these as 
"Control+Mod2+Tab" and "Control+Shift+Mod2+Tab".

Nonetheless, neither the window activation nor the focus are switched when 
I type CTRL-TAB or CTRL-SHIFT-TAB.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this feature not working? Or is it simply 
not supported.

Thanks.
