[XForms] xforms Window Moving Problem

[Bentz, Jason]

Actually, I was just about to reply and let you all know that it appears
to be an Xwindows thing, not xforms.

If I use ktimer (accessories), I also get the strange behavior.  When
looking in Preferences>>Windows, I see the setting, hold-to-move window
(which is set to ALT).  There is no way to turn this off, at least with
the GUI interface.  A normal terminal window is able to be moved by just
clicking & holding the left mouse button, but to click & hold to move
the xforms windows (or ktimer), I must hold down ALT.

What I'm wondering, if there is a way to disable this hold-to-move
option in the Preferences>>Windows GUI setting?  Maybe there is a way to
manually edit a text file to remove this setting...

This sounds like a function of the window manager, and not xforms.  Does
this only happen with xforms programs, or can you duplicate it with
something else like xclock or firefox?
