From: Keith David Bershatsky <esq <at> lawlist.com> To: 21415 <at> debbugs.gnu.org Subject: bug#21415: 25.0.50; Emacs Trunk -- pixelwise width/height for x-create-frame Date: Fri, 04 Sep 2015 10:41:46 -0700
I am trying to do three things: (1) efficiently create a new frame that is exact as to pixelwise width/height so that `(set-frame-size FRAME WIDTH PIXELWISE)` is not needed after each new frame is created; (2) pass a pixelwise argument to `x-create-frame` that would resolve the first goal [?]; (3) avoid intermittent visual flickering of the entire frame that is caused by a frame creation at the default size of `(width . 80) (height . 35)` followed immediately by programmatically enlarging the frame substantially with `set-frame-size` using the pixelwise argument. [The intermittent visual flickering can be avoided by setting the `mode-line-format` to `nil`; however, the default `mode-line-format` causes/contributes to the visual flickering.] [This did not happen with the Emacs Trunk from last year, but happens now intermittently with a current version.] Thanks, Keith ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; In GNU Emacs 25.0.50.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0, NS appkit-1038.36 Version 10.6.8 (Build 10K549)) of 2015-08-29 on server.private Repository revision: 24ae05251587fbba4687544ec57565c8bc48071a Windowing system distributor `Apple', version 10.3.1038 Configured using: `configure --with-ns --without-imagemagick' Configured features: DBUS ACL LIBXML2 ZLIB TOOLKIT_SCROLL_BARS NS Important settings: locale-coding-system: utf-8-unix Major mode: FM Minor modes in effect: tb-mode: t sb-mode: t ml-mode: t ds-mode: t sd-mode: t bc-mode: t Recent messages: *beep* Quit: "lawlist-line-move -- lawlist-beginning-of-buffer" *beep* Quit: "lawlist-line-move -- lawlist-beginning-of-buffer" *beep* Quit: "lawlist-line-move -- lawlist-beginning-of-buffer" Wrote /Users/HOME/.0.data/.0.emacs/.scratch Emacs: Emacs Trunk -- pixelwise width/height fo . . . *beep* Making completion list...
