Hello,
So,  what shall I do with this ? Shall I submit a bug, or is that a known problem that will be solved with some redesigning of window handling along latest discussion on this email reflector ?

Subject: Problem with window-size-fixed








Dear EMACS experts,
A problem concerning window-size-fixed was reported on newsgroupfr.comp.applications.emacs 
(http://groups.google.fr/group/fr.comp.applications.emacs/browse_thread/thread/f617026a5906fcd3#)
To see the problem put the following code into a file 
test.el and launch emacs with: emacs -q -l test.el 

;----------------------------------------------
(setq inhibit-startup-message t) 
(split-window-vertically) 
(split-window-vertically) 
(split-window-horizontally) 
(switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "buffer1")) 
(select-window (next-window)) 
(switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "buffer2")) 
(select-window (next-window)) 
(switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "buffer3")) 
(select-window (next-window)) 
(switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "buffer4")) 
(select-window (previous-window)) 
(enlarge-window (- 5 (window-height))) 
(setq window-size-fixed t)
;----------------------------------------------

I have tested this with the very latest CVS version GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.0.2195) of 2009-07-25  (sorry again for the disturbance and thanks to Eli for help) 
and the same problem happens. 
So what happens is that I correctly get the following window partitionning:
Buffer 1 | Buffer 2 
---------+--------- 
      Buffer 3 
------------------- 
      Buffer 4 
------------------- 

with buf 1 and 2 of 7 rows, buf 3 of 4 rows, and buf 4 taking the remainder (that is 38 
rows for me).
The issue is that buffer 3 is supposed to be fixed-size. This is true if you use `C-u N C-x ^' for re-dimensionning, but it is not true if you try to do it by mouse, in that case buffer 4 is fixed-size instead.

Best regards,
    Vincent.
