Subject: bug#74214: 30.0.92; Feature request - Support fringe bitmaps of width > 16 pixel
Date: Tue, 05 Nov 2024 18:11:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87a5edzjur.fsf@daniel-mendler.de> (raw)

Dear Emacs devs,

on high resolution displays, fringe bitmaps of 8 or even 16 pixel are
quite small. The function `define-fringe-bitmap' requires the bitmap
width to be an integer from 1 to 16. I would like to request to lift
this restriction, maybe allowing widths up to 64 or even larger. The
fringe itself is already allowed to be larger, e.g., the following is
supported, but the bitmaps cannot take advantage of the larger fringe:

(setq-local left-fringe-width 64
            right-fringe-width 64)

Thank you!

In GNU Emacs 30.0.92 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, cairo
 version 1.18.2, Xaw scroll bars) of 2024-10-26
