} How do you mean, at the top?

No, it's at exactly -14 (30 was a poor estimation) pixels in the y direction
on the display.  That's where the hotspot is too.

This is what I'm going for, and perhaps I just have WindowMaker
configuration files that need to be replaced with the defaults from the
latest version.
