Well, now I experimented a bit with fvwm3.

It is true that the desktop resize dynamicly. But not the position of
button box (that I have on the lower right side).

I also have a problem with icon size in the buttons. I have a screen
with a very high resolution. Usually I set them with xrandr to 1/4 size
(half x and half y) but as I also experimented with true type fonts that
gets correctly resized, I tried the full resulution.

Long sentences, The problem is, that the icons in FvwmButtons are only
half size now and only filling a part of their buttons.

How can I resize them to the correct DPI settings (from xrandr or
Xresources)?
