[Bug 590843] New: emacs with auctex: every time the mini-buffer is entered and exited, window height is shortened by a line
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=590843 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=590843#c0 Summary: emacs with auctex: every time the mini-buffer is entered and exited, window height is shortened by a line Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: RC 2 Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: auxsvr@yahoo.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.4) KHTML/4.4.1 (like Gecko) SUSE I'm using emacs-23.1-10.9 from factory and emacs-auctex-11.86, but this is known to be valid since 2007 or so: Every time I enter and exit the mini-buffer in emacs auctex mode, window height is shortened by approximately one line. This behaviour occurs only in KDE and with the icon toolbar in emacs. According to the references below, it may have something to do with the gtk-qt engine and the icons of the toolbar. One possible remedy is setting "(tool-bar-mode -1)" in ~/.emacs. I apologize if I've assigned this to the wrong group; the problem involves both KDE and emacs. [1] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel/83693 [2] http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-auctex@gnu.org/msg01380.html Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open a .tex file in emacs in auctex mode 2.Access the mini-buffer (M-x) 3.Exit the mini-buffer (C-g) Actual Results: Window height almost always becomes shorter by one line. Expected Results: Window height remains constant. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I am using: OpenSuse 11.2 + KDE 4.3.5 (release 0.1.1) + emacs 23.1 (release 3.7.1). I should also add that if compilation of the LaTeX source is done through the toolbar icons instead than interacting with the mini-buffer via the keystroke sequence "C-c C-c", the window height remains constant. Another case producing a decrease of the window height can be obtained via the following sequence of actions: 1) Find a file (C-x C-f) 2) Type the first few characters of a LaTeX file name 3) Type "Tab" to open a "Completion" buffer 4) Select the LaTeX file After step #4 a buffer containing the LaTeX file is opened, and immediately the emacs window is shortened by one line. A similar problem has been verified while using IDLWAVE mode, when opening an IDL shell (command "C-c C-s"), and during subsequent iterations between the buffer containing the script (mode: IDLWAVE) and the shell buffer (mode: IDL-Shell:run), iterations usually done through the mini-buffer (e.g.: "C-x b" to switch between buffers). I can add a detailed sequence of actions to reproduce the problem, if required. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

With the problematic window open, Alt+F3/Advanced/Special window settings/Workarounds/Strictly obey geometry and forcing it to be on, does that change anything?
No, it does not change the behaviour, at least for me. I tried both the test described by the first reporter, and the test described in my subsequent comment. Since you are suggesting something about "forcing geometry", it might be relevant to note that if the emacs window is maximized (using the "maximize" button), it cannot be restored to its original size anymore. And that happens independently on the lisp script running (i.e.: it is not related to auctex or idlwave). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I tried running emacs outside KDE (gnome and TWM or something like that), and there's no problem in this case. The references I posted above indicate that the gtk-qt engine may be at fault here, something that matches my experience so far. Also, emacs has always had problems with the maximize button here since SUSE 9.3, if I remember correctly. When an emacs window opens, the maximize button makes the window slightly shorter than the full height; pressing it again makes it fully maximized. The initial size (the one the window had when it first appeared) cannot be restored. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The toolbar changes height, when I enter the mini-buffer. Entering the mini-buffer also changes the height of the mini-buffer when using metacity; using kwin, the height of the mini-buffer remains constant. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This is rather nasty annoying bug. It seems to be specific with KDE.

So the only workaround for now is to disable the toolbar. Lets hope someone will have a look at this bug, but I fear that people from Kwin will point their finger to the emacs people and vice versa.... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
