Subject: maximize resizes to large size, but doesn't really maximize

- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

under KDE when maximizing an emacs window (with the square) the
window will resize to almost fullscreen size instead of really going to
fullscreen. This also makes it impossible to go back from fullscreen size to
small size with a single click.


This is GNU Emacs 22.1.50.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.14)
 of 2007-08-24

   I can't reproduce this in the Gnome window manager in either the
   branch or the trunk.  Is anyone on this list using KDE?

I am seeing the first half of this in KDE 3.1.4 (Gnu/Linux, SuSE 9.0).
When I maximize, there is a thin sliver of root window at the right
margin, but not at the other margins.  But when I click the "maximize"
button again, the frame goes immediately back to its original size.

   But 3.1.4 is rather old; I can try a newer version tomorrow.  Maybe
they have a bug that got worse in later versions . . .

This sounds like KDE does what the ICCCM says it should, and obeys the
ResizeInc hints Emacs sets on its windows.  I know Metacity explicitly
don't obey them.

I reported this bug some time ago (see
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-pretest-bug/2005-05/msg00325.html).
I have continued to observe it since then, currently with GNU Emacs
22.1.50.11 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.6) of 2007-08-24 on
escher and KDE 3.5.7 (openSUSE 10.2).  The current behavior is a bit
different and seems to depend on the type of maximization and also
perhaps on the font.  I can provide details if someone's interested.
