Re: How to restore the layout?

[Angelo Graziosi]

Some update..

With the GTK build of trunk on Cygwin [1] I notice the following.. [2]

Suppose I start Emacs without any desktop file. It starts with the 
default frame almost a square. Now I click on maximize button and the 
frame has the width of the Windows desktop (about 160 columns) and the 
height just a line above the Windows status bar [3].

After this I quit from Emacs, it asks to save desktop (Yes), I restart 
Emacs... It starts with a frame whose width is as that of Windows 
desktop (OK) but the height is N-4 lines and the maximized button is 
*not* selected. Maximizing, the frame gains another line (N-3).

I notice this only with the Cygwin build. On Ubuntu and Kubuntu the 
frame is restored always with the maximize button selected and takes 
always N-2 lines. It is really maximized!


Ciao
Angelo.

[1] On XP the windows has on top right corner 3 buttons (from left to 
right): minimize, maximize and close

[2] To the init file I have added
(setq desktop-restore-frames t)

[3] If the Windows desktop has N+2 lines (+2 for the status bar) then 
the Emacs frame maximized has N-3 lines
