I attempted it (that is, added (user-size . t) to the =E2=80=98setq=E2=80=99 expression before creating a new frame),= but it did not change the result (new frame is small). Based on what Eli Zaretskii wrote in another reply, it appears that the problem has been reported already (bug #67654). I had searched through this mailing list archives (Emacs help) before asking here about the problem, but had not searched through the mailing list archives for Emacs bugs (because I was assuming that it must have been my error because it is such a large, reproducible problem). --
