Can someone point me to where the mouse bindings configuration went? FC3 seems to have removed easy access to it, and I want it back. Raising the window when I click inside the window is *not* what I want metacity to do, I have focus follows mouse and I want the window layers arrangement to remain the same when I'm working in a partially obscured window.
Help?
Regards, Carl

You talking FC3 here? Because I don't have that. Perhaps that's my problem. Do you know what script this really is underneath the menu?

gnome-window-properties
You ARE talking about GNOME, aren't you?

Yeah, but gnome-window-properties isn't what I'm looking for. There existed in FC1 a configuration panel similar to the keyboard-shortcuts panel that allowed configuration of mouse events. Stuff like Button-2 on title bar pushes window down. Basically I want to remove the raise- window event when clicking inside a window.

Yes that's what you want... check for this package: control-center-2.8.0-12
Otherwise re-install it, SHOULD be there!!
[gianni@Blackhawk ~]$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/gnome-window-properties control-center-2.8.0-12

Sorry, I may not have understood you, what do you mean by inside a window?? Do you mean by double tapping in the title bar? If you want shade mode in by clicking the title bar, you need to select that in the Title Bar action drp-down menu.

I think you're still stuck on "Select windows when the mouse moves over them" which is basically sloppy focus. I have that. That's not what I'm talking about. Sloppy focus allows me to move the mouse to another window (possibly partially obscured) and type into it without having to raise it to the top.
What I'm asking for is the ability to also click buttons in the window (or highlight text, etc) without raising it to the top. This is broken in FC3 (and I think FC2). There used to be a way in FC1 to modify the mouse bindings to remove the "raise-window" action from mouse clicks within the window. It does not seem to exist anymore.
Where is the mouse binding configuration? Or is this something else Metacity decided to ditch?
