Sorry, sure. The issue is when you have the frame sized to be a
non-multiple of the font-width (pixel sized), save the desktop, then
restart emacs and restore the desktop.

At this point you’ll have a pixel width in your frame parameters.

Then if you resize the frame to be a multiple of the font-width and
save the desktop, you end up writing the previous pixel widths because
they were in frame parameters and we do not reset them unless you are
using a non-multiple of the font width.

If that doesn’t make sense I can try and write up a repro when I get a chance.

Thanks,

Aaron
