Very interesting. A whole entire feature that I never knew about because I'm using my legacy fvwm config file (which predates this feature and doesn't make use of it), and because my mouse doesn't have a scroll wheel in the first place. Looking at what I believe to be the default Debian fvwm config file (/usr/share/fvwm/default-config/config) I find this chunk: # TitleBar: Click to Raise, Move, Double Click to Maximize # Mouse Wheel Up/Down to WindowShade On/Off # Borders: Click to raise, Move to Resize # Root Window: Left Click - Main Menu # Right Click - WindowOps Menu # Middle Click - Window List Menu # Right click TitleBar/Borders for WindowOps Menu Mouse 1 T A RaiseMoveX Move Maximize Mouse 1 FS A RaiseMove Resize Mouse 4 T A WindowShade True Mouse 5 T A WindowShade False Mouse 1 R A Menu MenuFvwmRoot Mouse 2 R A WindowList Mouse 3 R A Menu MenuWindowOpsLong Mouse 1 I A RaiseMoveX Move "Iconify off" Mouse 3 T A Menu MenuWindowOps Mouse 3 I A Menu MenuIconOps So, if you comment out the "Mouse 4" and "Mouse 5" lines there (and restart fvwm), I bet that would disable the WindowShade binding to the scroll wheel. You could still activate or deactivate it through the menus, assuming you leave those in place.
