Subject: bug#75291: Redisplay not updating fringe when face filter changes
Date: Thu, 02 Jan 2025 12:30:16 -0500

Sometimes we don't redraw when its effective face changes indirectly due
to a face filter condition evaluating differently.

An explicit redraw-display works around the problem, but it shouldn't be
necessary and is an efficiency hit.

See the code below:

;; -*- lexical-binding: t -*-

;; emacs -Q

(setf my-window (selected-window))

(dolist (face '(default fringe))
  (face-remap-add-relative
   face `(:filtered (:window foo t) (:background "green"))))

(set-window-parameter my-window 'foo t)

;; During this sit-for, background and fringe should be green
(sit-for 1)
(set-window-parameter my-window 'foo nil)

;; Enable to work around bug
(when nil
  (redraw-display))

;; During this sit-for, background and fringe should be their original
;; color (probably white), but only the background changes.
;; Without redraw-display, the fringe remains green.
(sit-for 1)
