FVWM: Focus problem

Hi,

Normally I have problems with windows having a to aggressive focus
policy. But now I have exactly the opposite problem.

A Wine window has some fields for input but the window refuses to take
the focus. Any idea how I can force the focus to a window?

A hint might be that the window ident shows at the end:
Focus Policy: No Input
- Input Field: False
- WM_TAKE_FOCUS: Absent

Any Idea how to solve that?

Regards
Klaus

The window told fvwm that it does not want the focus at all.

Try

style <windowname> lenience

This will make fvwm give the window focus regardless of what the
window requested.

Ciao
