1. Have a line in init.el like

(set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 110 :weight 'semi-light :family
"Cascadia Mono")

2. Start Emacs. See the graphical frame get resized briefly during 
startup, but then go back to the default monospaced system font (Ubuntu 
Mono in my case), with the default font size.

To reproduce without wiping ~/.emacs.d, create

/tmp/.emacs.d/init.el with that one line

and run

emacs -Q -l /tmp/.emacs.d/init.el

with a recent enough build from master.

If I then evaluate that line in the running Emacs session (visit the 
file, go to eol, press C-x C-e), the face attributes get set correctly, 
with expected visual result.

There was a similar report in emacs-devel from Tim Cross 2 days ago, but
it apparently resolved itself after 'fc-cache -v' and rebooting. I
haven't tried rebooting, but the command itself didn't help.

I cannot reproduce this.  The settings in the init file, both the font
family and its size, get reflected in the default face's font for me.
But I'm not on an X/GTK-based system, so I suspect something like
xsettings or gsettings or somesuch are responsible for the resetting
of the default face's font.  Perhaps Po Lu could help.

Thanks.  Dimitry, do you have font-use-system-font set to any non-nil
value?  If so, the font will be changed back upon startup, in order to
reflect the system font.

Nope. That value is nil.

Does it happen in an -nw session as well?  (Obviously, you have to set
some face attribute other than the font to test.)

Depends on the attribute.

If I set :foreground, it is retained both under X and -nw. :background too.

If I set :underline, it is retained under -nw, but not under X. But that 
includes an older branch which I haven't merged master to for a while, 
which I use daily.

Underline similarly appears briefly during startup but then goes away. 
Same for :inverse-video. All under X (-nw keeps them).

Said branch doesn't touch anything display-related, so it should behave 
like master a few months ago.

The difference seems to be that the most recent master also does that to 
attributes :height and :family.

If you run "xrdb -query", what is printed?

I see the same symptoms as Dmitry.  I'm running a current Debian Testing
system, Gnome, Wayland.

Namely:

1) emacs -Q --> the 'default font family is the Gnome system monospace font.

2) emacs -Q -l test.el --> still uses the Gnome system mono font despite
   setting the 'default face otherwise early in init.

I changed the .el file to this:

    (set-face-attribute
     'default nil :height 110 :weight 'semi-light :family
     "Cascadia Mono")
    (debug-on-entry #'set-face-attribute)

And the origin of the font change back to the system defaults is this:

    Debugger entered--entering a function:
    * set-face-attribute(default #<frame *scratch* - GNU Emacs at naz 0x55ad505df290> :width normal :weight normal :slant normal :font "Go Mono 11")
      font-setting-change-default-font(":0" nil)
      dynamic-setting-handle-config-changed-event((config-changed-event font-render ":0"))
      funcall-interactively(dynamic-setting-handle-config-changed-event (config-changed-event font-render ":0"))
      call-interactively(dynamic-setting-handle-config-changed-event nil [(config-changed-event font-render ":0")])
      command-execute(dynamic-setting-handle-config-changed-event nil [(config-changed-event font-render ":0")] t)

It looks like `font-setting-change-default-font' is pulling the system
font (in my case "Go Mono") from the frame, which probably wasn't
modified by the earlier `set-face-attribute` call.  To confirm I changed
test.el to this:

    (set-face-attribute
     'default nil :height 110 :weight 'semi-light :family
     "Cascadia Mono")
    (dolist (frame (frame-list))
      (let ((frame-font
             (or (font-get (face-attribute 'default :font frame 'default)
                           :user-spec)
                 (frame-parameter frame 'font-parameter))))
        (message "frame %S frame-font %S" frame frame-font)))

And re-run "emacs -Q -l test.el" and get this in *Messages*:

    frame #<frame *scratch* - GNU Emacs at naz 0x55d8362ca7f0> frame-font "Go Mono 11"

So I change test.el yet again to have only this:

    (set-frame-font "Cascadia Mono")

...and that font change sticks.  `set-frame-font` is what is called by
the Options -> Set Default Font menu item and has logic to walk through
frames and set their parameters accordingly.

And again to have only this:

    (set-frame-font (font-spec :height 110
                               :weight 'semi-light
                               :family "Cascadia Mono"))


...I wonder if setting the 'default face attribute in 'early-init.el'
would be enough, too.

Doesn't it only do that if font-use-system-font is t?  Here is the
relevant part of dynamic-setting.el:

	;; Just redraw the existing fonts on all frames:
	(dolist (f frame-list)
	  (let ((frame-font
		 (or (font-get (face-attribute 'default :font f 'default)
			       :user-spec) <=====

this should return "Cascadia Mono"... what does it return for you?

Thanks, that looks fine.  Matt, could you show what that prints on your

I have the same problem.

GNU Emacs 29.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.20, cairo version 1.16.0)

emacs -Q -nbc -l /tmp/test.el

That is unrelated: previously xsettings font rendering events were not
sent on Cairo builds, but that led to a bug.

So fixing one bug exposed another bug?

I am running these tests with emacs -Q, so `font-use-system-font' is
nil.

It looks like `font-use-system-font' variable has an effect only when
`event` is 'monospace-font-name.  What I see is a 'font-render event
happening after `init.el`.  I never see a 'monospace-font-name event
(even if I change the system monospace font with Gnome Tweaks).

I just did another run, placing the below into `test.el' and running
"emacs -Q -l test.el".

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    (trace-function #'dynamic-setting-handle-config-changed-event)
    (trace-function #'font-setting-change-default-font)
    (trace-function #'set-face-attribute)
    (trace-function #'face-attribute)
    (trace-function #'font-get)

    (set-face-attribute
     'default nil :height 110 :weight 'semi-light :family
     "Cascadia Mono")
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

And this is what I see in "*trace-output*" after startup.  So, it looks
like `font-setting-change-default-font' is getting "IBM Plex Mono 11"
from the :user-spec of a Cascadia Mono font object, which seems strange.
In this case "IBM Plex Mono 11" is what I have set as my system's
default monospace font (in Gnome settings).

    ======================================================================
    1 -> (set-face-attribute default nil :height 110 :weight semi-light :family "Cascadia Mono")
    1 <- set-face-attribute: nil
    ======================================================================
    1 -> (dynamic-setting-handle-config-changed-event (config-changed-event font-render ":0"))
    | 2 -> (font-setting-change-default-font ":0" nil)
    | | 3 -> (face-attribute default :font #<frame *scratch* - GNU Emacs at naz 0x5598c59e4a70> default)
    | | 3 <- face-attribute: #<font-object "-SAJA-Cascadia Mono-semilight-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1">
    | | 3 -> (font-get #<font-object "-SAJA-Cascadia Mono-semilight-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1"> :user-spec)
    | | 3 <- font-get: "IBM Plex Mono 11"
    | | 3 -> (set-face-attribute default #<frame *scratch* - GNU Emacs at naz 0x5598c59e4a70> :width normal :weight normal :slant normal :font "IBM Plex Mono 11")
    | | 3 <- set-face-attribute: nil
    | 2 <- font-setting-change-default-font: nil
    1 <- dynamic-setting-handle-config-changed-event: nil
    ======================================================================

Also, I confirmed that moving the "test.el" code into early-init.el is
enough to "fix" the problem.  It looks like that runs even before the
default face is configured for the first time.

For completeness, here is how I'm running Emacs:

In case there's any doubt, we don't want this kind of solutions to be
the fix for such problems.  early-init.el should be used for a very
small number of customizations that must take place early on.  This
one is not one of them.

Thanks for the other data you collected.

I agree.  I think the problem is something in the code that handles
font-render events not working as intended: it is only supposed to cause
all fonts displayed on all frames to be reopened.

Won't:

  (clear-face-cache t)
  (clear-font-cache)

work for that as well?

Where can I read about the semantics of this event?  I don't think I
understand well enough what it means and how we should support it in
Emacs.

Also, any idea why we are delivered this event during startup?

I don't know.

The event is sent when the system says all fonts must be reopened,
because the settings used by the underlying font library have changed.

> Also, any idea why we are delivered this event during startup?

No idea.  TBH, it sounds like a bug in the PGTK GSettings code I will
look into.

It might be a clue to the bug.  Namely, when the 'default face's family
is set in init.el I see this in the
dynamic-setting-handle-config-changed-event ->
font-setting-change-default-font calls:

3 -> (font-get #<font-object "-SAJA-Cascadia Mono-semilight-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1"> :user-spec)
3 <- font-get: "IBM Plex Mono 11"

When set in early-init.el I see something like this:

3 -> (font-get #<font-object "-SAJA-Cascadia Mono-semilight-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1"> :user-spec)
3 <- font-get: "Cascadia Mono 11"

I don't know what a font-object's :user-spec property is, or why it is
apparently wrong in the first case.

Of course, and that's why this information is valuable.  My point is
that it cannot be a solution to have users customize the default face
in early-init.el.

See font.c, where this property is put on the font object.

That's the important question to answer, yes.

These settings now cause such a strange effect that tabs have gigantic heights
on the tab-bar, while tab text still stays small.  Such sizes make sense only
when used with double scaling on a HiDPI display, but no scaling is really used
in this case:

Would you please see if Emacs now behaves satisfactorily in this regard?

As I previously wrote in bug#59306, the fonts seem fine now, and they 
have been the reason for me filing this bug report (#58912). But the 
frame size is still jumpy (something I only noticed later).

So we could close this bug and continue in bug#59306, I suppose?

Yes, I guess so.
