Subject: trouble with modify-frame-parameters
Date: Mon, 11 May 2015 13:38:39 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87zj5b6mlc.fsf@nyu.edu> (raw)
I execute the following function in *scratch* on a fresh emacs -Q
(modify-frame-parameters ; for 2560x1600
nil '((fullscreen . fullheight) (width . 176) (left . -1300)))
My screen is 2560x1600. Emacs version is 24.4. System is gentoo/gnome.
The frame does become fullheight and the width does become 176.
However, left is not correct (it should be flush left but is nearly
centered.
The weird part is if I execute the same command again (a second C-j in
*scratch), the frame moves to the correct, flush left, position.
An explanation would be appreciated.
thanks,
allan
PS If I use the more natural (left . 0) the frame moves near the left
edge but is not flush left (even if executed twice).
