Fix user guide #includes
Btw, I took the User Guide from http://wmaker.orconhosting.net.nz/help/user_guide/toc.htm because the images were included correctly (the images are not present in the current www.windowmaker.org section for the User Guide)

<h3><a name="2.2.1">2.2.1 Focusing a Window</a></h3><a name="2.2.1"></a><br />
|
||||
Windows can be in two states: <i>focused</i> , or <i>unfocused.</i> The focused window (also called the key or active
|
||||
window) has a black titlebar and is the window that receives keyboard input, ie: where you can type text. Usually it's
|
||||
the window where you work on. Only one window may be focused at a time. Unfocused windows have a light gray titlebar.
|
||||
Some applications have a special type of window, called dialog windows transient windows or panels. When these windows
|
||||
are active, the window that owns them (the main window) get a dark gray titlebar. As soon as the dialog window is
|
||||
closed, the focus is returned to the owner window.<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
The image below shows an active Open File panel and it's owner window.<br />

||||
</center><br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
There are three styles of window focusing:<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<b>Click-to-Focus</b>,or manual focus mode. In click-to-focus mode, you explicitly choose the window that should be
|
||||
focused. This is the default mode.<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<b>Focus-Follow-Mouse</b>,or auto-focus mode. In this mode, the focused window is chosen based on the position of the
|
||||
mouse pointer. The window below the mouse pointer is always the focused window.<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<b>Sloppy-Focus</b>,or semi-auto-focus mode. This is similar to the focus-follow-mouse mode, but if you move the
|
||||
pointer from a window to the root window, the window will not loose focus.<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
You can choose between these modes with the <i>FocusMode</i> option<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<font face="Helvetica"><b>To focus a window in click-to-focus mode:</b></font>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul type="disc">
|
||||
<li><font face="Helvetica">Click on the titlebar, resizebar or in the client area of the window with the left or
|
||||
right mouse button.<br />

||||

||||

<br /></font></li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><font face="Helvetica">Open the window list menu and select the window to focus.</font></li>
|
||||
</ul><br />
|
||||
When you click in the client area of an inactive window to set the focus, the click is normally processed by the
|
||||
application. If you find this behaviour a little confusing, you can make the application ignore this click by using the
|
||||
<i>IgnoreFocusClick</i> option.<br />

<br />
|

Dialog/transient windows are always placed over their owner windows, unless the <i>OnTopTransients</i> option is
|
||||
disabled. Some windows have a special attribute that allow them be permanently over normal windows. You can make
|
||||
specific windows have this attribute use the <i>AlwaysOnTop</i> window option or set it in the Window Inspector
|
||||
panel.<br />

<h3><a name="2.2.6">2.2.6 Shading a Window</a></h3><a name="2.2.6"></a> If you want to temporarily get rid of a window,
|

an option for it's miniaturization is to <i>shade</i> it. When you shade a window, the window rolls up to it's
|
||||
titlebar. You can do almost everything you do with a normal window with shaded windows, like miniaturizing or closing
|
||||
it.<br />

<h3><a name="2.2.7">2.2.7 Closing a Window</a></h3><a name="2.2.7"></a> After finishing work in a window, you can close
|

it to completely get rid of it. When you close a window, it is removed from the screen and can no longer be restored.
|

So, before closing a window, be sure you have saved any work you were doing on it.<br />

Some windows will have a close button with some dots around it. These windows can't be closed normally and the only way
|
||||
to get rid of them is by exiting the application. You should try exiting from inside the application (through it's
|
||||
menus or buttons) when possible. Otherwise you can force WindowMaker to ``kill'' the application.<br />
