Subject: 23.0.60; Changing font size
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2009 21:22:28 -0400

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing
list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Actions to reproduce:
Start emacs with '-q'
define the following function:

(defun sacha/decrease-font-size ()
  "Decreases the font size by 10%"
  (interactive)
  (set-face-attribute 'default
                      nil
                      :height
                      (floor (* 0.9
                (face-attribute 'default :height)))))
Maximize the emacs window
execute sacha/decrease-font-size
Symptoms:
Font size is reduced, but usable parts of emacs are also reduced - large
amounts of inaccessible whitespace left at the right/bottom of the window.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.0.60/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
