bug#16105: (setq ns-auto-hide-menu-bar t) unhides the dock on S.L. 10.6.8.

[Keith David Bershatsky]

(setq ns-auto-hide-menu-bar t) unhides the dock on S.L. 10.6.8.

Step 1:  Place (setq ns-auto-hide-menu-bar t) inside the init.el file.

Step 2:  Auto hide the OSX dock so that it comes up with Ctrl+F3 or with the mouse, and then hides again automatically when not in use.  Place the Emacs application icon on the Dock.

Step 3:  Launch Emacs using OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.

Step 4:  Command+Tab to any other open application.

Step 5:  Ctrl+F3, type Emacs, RET

Step 6:  After you have switched back to Emacs, switch again to another application with Command+Tab -- the dock is visible full-time.

Thanks,

Keith

bug#16105: (setq ns-auto-hide-menu-bar t) unhides the dock on S.L. 10.6.8.

[Keith David Bershatsky]

I have a workaround for bug #16105, which may help the Emacs team locate the root cause.

* Remove the Emacs.app shortcut from the Dock.

* Restore hiding of the Dock to its normal working state.

  ** Click on the Apple logo.

  ** Go down to Dock on the menu.

  ** Select `Turn Hiding Off`

  ** Repeat the process now, but select `Turn Hiding On` this time around.

* With the open-source program called Platypus, create an Application with the following script -- adjust the path accordingly.

#!/bin/sh

osascript -e 'tell application "/Users/HOME/.0.data/.0.emacs/Emacs_06_01_2014.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs" to activate'

* Drag that newly created application to the Dock to create a shortcut -- this will be the new method for activating Emacs with C-F3 or returning to Emacs with C-F3 when it is already running.


That's it -- workaround achieved!  So, bug #16105 is triggered specifically by accessing Emacs from the Dock with a shortcut created from the Emacs application.  A different method of activating Emacs avoids triggering the bug.

Thanks,

Keith

Hello.

FWIW, I don't see the original bug with Emacs trunk on OX 10.6.8.  Can you try that version?

So, if you have tried those exact steps and are not seeing it, then perhaps  it is an issue similar to a previous one a few months ago.  A few months ago, you discovered that I was using a certain set of tools to build Emacs, which was different than the ones you are using, and that was the reason I was seeing a bug with the help menu.  I mention this because I'm still using the same tools to build Emacs.  I don't remember the name exactly, but it was something like "clang".

I build with clang.

And hiding will not work again for other applications unless OSX is restarted, or unless you clock on Show the Dock and then Hide the Dock again to restore functionality.

I still can't reproduce it.  Dock hides as it should in all applications after following your steps.

In this case it does not. I built with gcc and clang, and I can't reproduce this.

This was reported 6 years ago, and it seemed to be unreproducible by
others.  Are you still seeing this on a recent version of Emacs?

If I don't hear back from you within a couple of weeks, I'll just
close this bug as unreproducible.

More information was requested, but none was given within 7 weeks, so
I'm closing this bug.  If this is still an issue, please reply to this
email (use "Reply to all" in your email client) and we can reopen the
bug report.
