bug#22898: 24.5; Frame Width increases on entering a Gnus Group

1. Start Emacs in X, M-: (frame-width) returns 80
2. Start Gnus, (M-x gnus)
3. Open one of the groups
4. Frame width increases, frame-width returns > 80. Some times it increases
by 1 sometimes by more.
5. Exit group and enter the same group again. The frame width does not
increase.
6. Exit group and enter a different group. The frame width *might* increase.

It seems that the amount the frame increases by depends on the contents of
the group, but I am not sure what exactly to look for in the group.

I'm unable to reproduce this bug.  I don't think there's anything in
Gnus that alters the sizes of frames?  Unless you've made a Gnus window
configuration that does something like that...

Or perhaps it chooses a wider font?  Do you have any such local
customisations?

This could be the same as bug#15700 and bug#22000, due to a change
of the number of items displayed in the menu bar.  Have a look at

http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=22000

and tell us whether the symptoms reported there coincide with yours.

Thanks, martin

I think you are spot on. I can see the frame width increase with just the
right amount to fit the menu bar. On a regular group it increases with 1
column. On the "nndraft:drafts" group it increases with more since this
group has more menus.

Thanks!
Rares
