Testing with 'emacs -Q' and the following snippet:

(add-to-list 'display-buffer-alist
             '("\\*Completions\\*"
               (display-buffer-in-side-window)
               (window-height . 0.05)
               (side . bottom)
               (slot . 0)
               (window-parameters . ((no-other-window . t)))))

Seems like the 'window-height' parameter is being ignored and I'm unable
to set the height for the *Completions* window this way.

Switching window direction to 'left' or 'right' and setting
'window-width' instead of height seems to be working with this altered
snippet:

(add-to-list 'display-buffer-alist
             '("\\*Completions\\*"
               (display-buffer-in-side-window)
               (window-width . 0.05)
               (side . right)
               (slot . 0)
               (window-parameters . ((no-other-window . t)))))

The 'window-height' parameter gets ignored only when specifying the
'top' or 'bottom' side.

You _are_ able to do that since

(display-buffer (get-buffer-create "*Completions*"))

displays the buffer as intended within the bounds of the value you
supplied, the size of the frame, the number of windows it shows ...

What happens is that the function responsible for displaying completions
('minibuffer-completion-help') uses the 'with-displayed-buffer-window'
macro and supplies it with a

	       '(window-height . fit-window-to-buffer)

argument.  'with-displayed-buffer-window', in these two parts

               (vheight-function
                (let ((window-height (assq 'window-height (cdr ,vaction))))
                  (when (functionp (cdr window-height))
                    (cdr window-height))))

and

	 (when vheight-function
	   (ignore-errors
	     (set-window-parameter ,window 'preserve-size nil)
              (funcall vheight-function ,window)))

uses the above supplied 'fit-window-to-buffer' to override the 0.05
window-height value supplied by your customization.

When you display *Completions* in a side window below or above an
already existing side window, you may observe a similar effect for a
side window on the left or right of your frame.  And if
'fit-window-to-buffer-horizontally' is non-nil, you may see the effect
even when there is only one side window on the left or right even when
window-width is 0.05.

Strictly spoken, the behavior you describe is a bug because
'minibuffer-completion-help' violates the contract obligations of
'display-buffer'.  But displaying completions had its own rules ever
since so I'm not sure what to suggest.

I'm not seeing any adverse effects by obeying the contract:

... because I'm using 'temp-buffer-resize-mode'.  But IIRC (Juri likely
knows better) completions windows are traditionally fit to their buffer
so people who never use 'temp-buffer-resize-mode' would now be surprised
to not see their completions window fit.  So while we probably can't do
what you propose above, we should be able to _not_ fit the window when
the alist already provides an explicit height argument as in your case.

I'm using 'temp-buffer-resize-mode' too.  I don't know why it's disabled
by default.

My old opinion is that we need to try to get rid of these macros
and rely only on alist values.  So it would be easier to override
the default alist values such as 'window-height'.

IIRC Chong didn't like it.

You mean 'minibuffer-completion-help' should call 'display-buffer'
directly and do the rest of the setup manually?

Is there such a default value?  Who would provide it?

Yes, and all other commands that currently use
with-displayed-buffer-window should get along without it.

Since users should be able to override it by e.g.

(add-to-list 'display-buffer-alist
             '("\\*Completions\\*"
               (window-height . 5)
               ...

a default value should have a lower priority, i.e.
in the call of 'display-buffer' in 'minibuffer-completion-help'.

So you mean the default value is the value supplied by
'display-buffer-alist'.

Here is a complete list of commands that use
with-displayed-buffer-window:

- dired-mark-pop-up
- minibuffer-completion-help
- save-buffers-kill-emacs

What they all have in common is that they have some post-processing
in the displayed buffer.  I wonder why there are no more such commands
that need to do such post-processing?  Maybe they use some simpler
solution that could be used here as well?

For example, hack-local-variables-confirm uses just

  (pop-to-buffer "*Local Variables*" '(display-buffer--maybe-at-bottom))

and nothing more, without hassles of with-displayed-buffer-window.
And still it fits the window nicely into the buffer height.
Why the above 3 commands couldn't do the same by abandoning
with-displayed-buffer-window?

> So you mean the default value is the value supplied by

Actually, I meant the default value is that used as the ACTION arg of
display-buffer.

IIUC it neither runs the hooks for temporary buffers nor does it obey
'temp-buffer-resize-mode'.

How comes?

It depends on how much of the stuff in 'temp-buffer-window-setup' and
'temp-buffer-window-show' they really need.

I don't know why it should run hooks and 'temp-buffer-resize-mode'.
Why other clients of display-buffer don't need these hooks?

Maybe this means it's possible to avoid using with-displayed-buffer-window?

'display-buffer--maybe-at-bottom' handles this by using

   (let ((alist (append alist `(,(if temp-buffer-resize-mode
		                    '(window-height . resize-temp-buffer-window)
	                          '(window-height . fit-window-to-buffer))
	                       ,(when temp-buffer-resize-mode
	                          '(preserve-size . (nil . t)))))))

The question is now whether we want to do that in one place (that is, in
the temporary buffer setup and show functions) or in many places (like
in the buffer display action functions).

It seems better to handle the temp-buffer setup in the buffer display action
functions (currently there are two such functions that handle temp-buffer:
'display-buffer--maybe-at-bottom' and 'display-buffer-in-direction'),
if this will help to get rid of monstrous macro 'with-displayed-buffer-window'.

Here is the first step, this patch seems to keep the original behavior,
but I need your help to finish it.  Could you confirm that calls of
window-preserve-size at the end of with-displayed-buffer-window are
not needed anymore after this patch is applied, because there are the
same calls of window-preserve-size at the end of window--display-buffer
that are called later after buffer contents is filled
by after-display-function in the middle of window--display-buffer:

Didn't we agree that 'vaction' is harmful anyway so these "same calls"
should never have been applied in the first place?  I wouldn't bother
about them at the moment, when something fails we find out soon enough.

But what if a function like 'dired-format-columns-of-files' wanted to

(1) know the width of the window used for displaying the buffer,

(2) according to that (presumably fixed) width adjust columns, establish
a maximum width of buffer lines or do something else width related,

(3) leave it to 'window--display-buffer' to adjust the window height
afterwards?

And be able to do (1)-(3) in the orthogonal direction, that is, base (2)
on a presumably fixed window height?

I conjecture that in such case, the function (functions?) specified by
'after-display-function' should be supplied the window to display the
buffer as first argument (just in case there's another window showing
the same buffer).  WDYT?

martin

These calls should remain in 'window--display-buffer' to adjust the
window height afterwards.

'dired-format-columns-of-files' is called when the window
is already displayed, so it can find the width of the window,
and it uses 'completion--insert-strings' for that, see below.

> (2) according to that (presumably fixed) width adjust columns, establish

Same as above.

It already allows 'window--display-buffer' to adjust the window height
afterwards in the previous patch.

> And be able to do (1)-(3) in the orthogonal direction, that is, base (2)
> on a presumably fixed window height?

You mean to not allow adjusting the window height afterwards?
Then the call of 'display-buffer' should be without alist entries
'window-height' and 'preserve-size'.

> I conjecture that in such case, the function (functions?) specified by

The current implementation doesn't supply the window, and
'dired-format-columns-of-files' and 'minibuffer-completion-help'
use 'completion--insert-strings':

	   (window (get-buffer-window (current-buffer) 0))
	   (wwidth (if window (1- (window-width window)) 79))

Do you propose to rewrite 'completion--insert-strings' for accept a new
argument 'window'?  Or to rely on the fact that the displayed window should
be already selected by its caller?  Will this break backward-compatibility
for packages that use it?

Does it know the window for sure?  Always think of the case where the
buffer is already displayed in some other window.

We have to be always prepared for the case that a split happens in the
orthogonal direction.

That's precisely what I'm afraid of (and it happens in a dozen other
cases in our code base as well, IIRC).  Better make sure now that we
always act on the window returned by 'display-buffer'.

Maybe it's overkill but I'd give 'completion--insert-strings' an
additional window argument.

Yes, it's overkill.  I can't imagine a situation when the
*Completions* buffer needs to be displayed in two windows.

I see that you proposed this as a use case that justifies
adding a WINDOW arg to 'after-display-function'.
But I already agreed about adding a new arg to
'after-display-function', and will add it anyway.

Separate completions in two different frames?

OK.  To avoid confusions 'after-display-function' should be renamed to
'after-display-buffer-function' at least.

Are you sure about such long name?  This is not a hook, it's just
an alist entry along with 'window-height' and 'preserve-size'.

A good short name would be 'body-function' where 'body' has
two-fold meaning:

1. it hints to body of the former macro that it replaces;

2. body could also mean window body that this function fills.

Here is a completely tested patch that works in all cases:

You're right, I was confused.

LGTM.  'body-function' needs an alist entry in the manual then.

Actually it broke choose-completion invoked in *Completions* displayed
from the minibuffer, because choose-completion expects completion-reference-buffer
to be the original buffer (should be the minibuffer in this case),
but it was *Completions*.  This means that display-completion-list
should be run in the original buffer.

Now fixed in master.

Thanks.  Strictly spoken, we should mention 'body-function' in the
doc-string of 'display-buffer' but I'd rather stop describing the alist
entries there.  Maybe we should just mention them and refer the user to
the manual.

 > Please check if this report could be closed now.

I think it can be closed now.

Many thanks for fixing this, martin
