Re: Emacs-desktop insists on having 13-pixel scrollbars at startup

Thank you Eli,

– Yes I'm sure about the correct desktop file. I can quit Emacs with very peculiar final configurations – many frames of very different, manually adjusted, size – but they are always correctly restored upon restart. Except the scroll-bar-width. If I delete the desktop file then Emacs doesn't remember the previous configuration.


– The scrollbar-width peculiarity happens with vv. 29.2/29.3 and

--with-x-toolkit=gtk --without-toolkit-scroll-bars

and also with

--with-x-toolkit=lucid --without-toolkit-scroll-bars

So it seems something peculiar to the "built-in" scrollbars. But I'll recompile without the "--without-toolkit-scroll-bars" and report what happens.

Cheers,
Luca
