Subject: bug#14795: height parameter inconsistent in new vs existing frames when tool-bar is enabled
Date: Fri, 5 Jul 2013 01:11:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAAeL0SR+VFyV7hY3fX=_ZteY6-jHmfkL8dpFu28GCfYC6u8UJw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAAeL0SS3OAnWpxb+FvBzaX3g=2Pe0KetD-xBndyUK7ASt08F=w@mail.gmail.com>

Martin pointed out in emacs-devel that frame.c:x_figure_window_size()
includes the following comment:

  /* Add the tool-bar height to the initial frame height so that the
     user gets a text display area of the size he specified with -g or
     via .Xdefaults.  Later changes of the tool-bar height don't
     change the frame size.  This is done so that users can create
     tall Emacs frames without having to guess how tall the tool-bar
     will get.  */
  if (toolbar_p && FRAME_TOOL_BAR_LINES (f))

I remain unconvinced. That's mixing apples and oranges. If UI commands
(like -g) and UI settings (like X resources) should interpret the
frame height as meaning the client area, so be it. But then we should
decouple these from the `height' frame parameter, because it doesn't
really make sense to say that `height' means client area height when
creating a frame, but total frame height when modifying it.
