bug#59122: 29.0.50; global-text-scale-adjust not working

bug#59122: 29.0.50; global-text-scale-adjust not working

[Rudolf Adamkovič via Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army knife of text editors]

Reproduction:

  1. emacs -Q
  2. type M-x global-text-scale-adjust RET
  4. type -

Expected:

  font size decreases

Actual:

  nothing happens

Notes:

  text-scale-adjust, which does not share code with
  global-text-scale-adjust, works correctly.

I cannot reproduce this, it works as expected for me.  But I'm not on
macOS.

Really nothing?  Do you see something in the echo area?  What happens if 
you press + instead?  Also, can you try again after M-x 
toggle-debug-on-error RET?

`+' works.

(Also, for some reason, `global-text-scale-adjust' increases the font
size once when executed, without me typing `+'.  Should that happen?)

No errors.

What does "C-h l" show after you press '-' and after you press '+'?

Okay, and after you press '+', does '-' work?  Also, as Eli asked, can you 
type C-h l after pressing '+' and '-' a few times?  You should see 
something like this:

+    ;; global-text-scale-adjust
+    ;; global-text-scale-adjust
-    ;; global-text-scale-adjust
-    ;; global-text-scale-adjust

I can reproduce this bug on macOS 12.6.1 (OP is on 12.6).

After pressing '+', '-' still doesn't decrease the font size.  I can
only increase it using '+'.

Thanks.  What do you get when you eval

(face-attribute 'default :height)

?  And what happens when you eval

(set-face-attribute 'default nil :height (- (face-attribute 'default :height) 5))

?  If nothing happens, can you try with 6, 7, 8... instead of 5, until 
something happens?

Please step with Edebug into global-text-scale-adjust, and tell what
do you see in the variable 'key' in the following fragment from the
command:

    (let* ((key (event-basic-type last-command-event))
           (echo-keystrokes nil)
           (cur (face-attribute 'default :height))
           (inc
            (pcase key
              (?- (* (- increment) 5))
              (?0 (- global-text-scale-adjust--default-height cur))
              (_ (* increment 5))))

Nothing happens.

With

(set-face-attribute 'default nil :height (- (face-attribute 'default
:height) 6))

the font size is decreased.  If I evaluate it more than once, the font
size decreases more with each additional invocation.

On the first invocation of 'global-text-scale-adjust':

last-command-event: 13 (#o15, #xd, ?\C-m)
key: 109 (#o155, #x6d, ?m)

When I then type '-', I see:

last-command-event: 45 (#o55, #x2d, ?-)
key: 45 (#o55, #x2d, ?-)

But it actually decreases by 10, right? (and similarly for increases)

Thanks.  The safe fix should be to change 5 to 6 here.  Eli, do you agree, 
or is there something else to investigate?

It would seem so:

(cons (face-attribute 'default :height)
      (progn
    (set-face-attribute 'default nil
                :height (- (face-attribute 'default :height) 6))
    (face-attribute 'default :height)))
=> (120 . 110)

With 'global-text-scale-adjust', in a fresh emacs -Q, I see that:

(cons (face-attribute 'default :height)
      (progn
    (global-text-scale-adjust 1)
    (face-attribute 'default :height)))
=> (120 . 130)

That might be what it does on macOS, but it's not what it does on 
GNU/Linux.  With my configuration the successive values are 109, 105, 102, 
98, 94, 90, 87, 83, ... or with 6 instead of 5: 109, 102, 98, 90, 83, ...

So it seems that after all simply remplacing 5 by 6 isn't optimal.

Is this bug specific to the most recent version of macOS?

And on my X build it goes

181 -> 173 -> 166

and

181 -> 188 -> 196

(using 5 or 6 as the adjustment makes no difference to the sequence on
X for me)

Can you tell more?  I don't think I understand why decreasing the face
height by 5 doesn't work, but decreasing it by 6 does.  If you do
understand, please tell.

I unfortunately only have access to the most recent version (12.6.1)
for testing.

(BTW, macOS 12.6 is dog-slow on older hardware, and AFAICT has no
useful new features - not one.  But Apple is no longer releasing
security fixes for older versions, so you are effectively forced to
upgrade if you care about security.)

Every time I upgrade I sit through the "this is what we changed"
slideshow, and none of it ever matters to me.

As far as I can tell from its somewhat convoluted code and docstrings,
that scales up and down by 20% every time.

It's because of rounding.  Face heights on macOS are multiples of 10 (100 
for 10.0 pt, 110 for 11.0 pt, ...).  Setting the face height to 105 
actually sets it to 110.

So I think what we should do here is to check, after set-face-attribute, 
whether the face height has actually changed, and if not try again with a 
bigger increment.

Because text-scale-adjust is cruder: it uses a factor instead of an 
increment.  The effect of global-text-scale-adjust is much smoother.

This subtle difference should probably be in the doc string, as users
will normally assume that global-text-scale-adjust is just a
globalized version of text-scale-adjust.

I apologize for replying late.

So, I tried the patch (applied on top of 04ade0508d) and it does not fix
the problem.  After `M-x global-text-scale-adjust RET', the command
immediately makes the font larger (without me ever pressing `+'), and
`-' still does nothing.

Is 'global-text-scale-adjust' new in Emacs 29?  Maybe it would be
better if they both work the same, presumably the same way as
'text-scale-adjust' does now (or the other way, if that's better).
Then we could introduce a new defcustom to make them both behave the
other way.  Would that make sense?

Gregory says the different operation of the global mode is a feature,
so making them behave the same would either mean losing the feature or
an incompatible change to text-scale-adjust.

Works here too, but the function still increases the font size right
after I execute it.

In other words, to have *no change* in font size, I have do:

1. type `M-x' and `global-text-scale-adjust' and `RET'
2. type `-'
3. type `q'

`text-scale-adjust' does this too, so I guess ... a feature?

Also, the two function now scale super-duper differently. :-/

I guess the idea is that you should invoke it with `C-x C-M-0'?  But
that seems to have another problem with the patch - when I type it I
get:

‘max-lisp-eval-depth’")

This is the intended behavior, so no need to try to "fix" it.

Yes, but why would you need to invoke the command if you don't want to
change the size of the font?  What kind of use case is that?

For the sake of completeness: these commands are meant to be used with 
their bindings, which are

C-<wheel-up> / C-<wheel-down> / C-x C-- / C-x C-+ / C-x C-0 / C-x C-=

and

C-M-<wheel-up> / C-M-<wheel-down> / C-x C-M-- / C-x C-M-+ / C-x C-M-0 / C-x C-M-=

Yes.  As I said earlier, global-text-scale-adjust scales smoothly, and 
text-scale-adjust scales fast.  That was a design choice when implementing 
global-text-scale-adjust.  It should of course be possible to make 
text-scale-adjust scale smoothly too.

I think that would be good, to make things more consistent.  Even better
if we could customize the step size, and/or the method of scaling for
both commands.  One defcustom could be shared by both.

The change in text-scale-adjust should be backward-compatible by
default, otherwise I'll object to it.

I know.  And I don't see how to reconcile the two conflicting goals here: 
Stefan K wants consistence, you want backward compatibility.

If the consistent operation is opt-in, I won't object.

I see.  I apologize for the noise, then.

Statistically, half of the time, when I invoke the command, I want to
make the font smaller.  In that case, making the font larger first leads
to both confusion and at least one unnecessary key press.

Invoking it like this: `M-- M-x global-text-scale-adjust' shrinks the
font size.

That still doesn't explain why you'd invoke the command with the zero
prefix argument.  I'd expect you to invoke it with a negative argument
instead.

bug#59122: 29.0.50; global-text-scale-adjust not working

[Gregory Heytings]

Pushed, and closing.

I also updated the docstrings of global-text-scale-adjust and 
text-scale-adjust.  Making text-scale-adjust behave like 
global-text-scale-adjust only requires to set text-scale-mode-step to a 
small enough factor, so it's unnecessary to add another defcustom.
