Subject: [Glenn Morris <gmorris@ast.cam.ac.uk>] frame-height and make-frame inconsistency
Date: 02 Apr 2003 00:47:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5xbrzp96n8.fsf@kfs2.cua.dk> (raw)


Glenn Morris has found a case where the previously inactive code
that "adds height of tool-bar to frame height" causes problems.

It would seem that the automatic resizing should only be applied to
the initial frame, but then C-x 5 f doesn't make a frame of the same
size as the initial frame.

Maybe the proper fix is to let frame-height return the height excl.
the tool-bar.

Actually, a superficial skimming through various pieces of lisp code
seem to assume that frame-height doesn't include the tool-bar height,
so maybe it would be more appropriate for frame-parameters to return
the height excl. the tool-bar height.

The change is simple, but I'm not sure what the implications are...
