   Edit your .tvtwmrc file. 

   In the "Variables" section of .tvtwmrc, include things like:

VirtualDesktop "3x3"           # or whatever virtual size you wish
Sticky { "Virtual Desktop" }   # make it sticky
StickyAbove                    # make above windows

   Do your man tvtwm and READ READ READ and READ it! Once you see how the
.tvtwmrc (or any other resource file) is configured it's easy!

 I think I ripped my inital .tvtwmrc from /usr/X11R6/<somewhere>/system.tvtwmrc
and edited that accordingly
