speedbar #4

Closed danielsz closed 10 years ago

danielsz commented 10 years ago

I've applied the workaround for Emacs 24.3 to address the new frame problem when using emacsclient, and it works as advertised. However, M-x speedbar, which previously would launch in a narrow frame to the left of the main frame, now opens in a normal sized frame on top of the main frame.

What would you suggest?

Add to your .emacs:

(add-to-list 'speedbar-frame-parameters (cons 'persp-ignore-wconf t))

And download persp-mode.el from test-ignoring-wconf-save-restore-for-frames-with-parameter branch: https://github.com/Bad-ptr/persp-mode.el/tree/test-ignoring-wconf-save-restore-for-frames-with-parameter

Thank you. It works only intermittently and seems to have all sorts of other undesirable effects. It looks like more testing is needed. However, I don't really want to pursue the avenue of forcing persp-mode onto Emacs 24.3 if I can fix the problem by installing Emacs from trunk and remove all those patches (sever.el, different branch of persp-mode)... Sorry about that.

Actually, switching to emacs from trunk will not solve this issue(and it's not related to workaround in server.el). ;[ That 'different' branch I had just created(couse new code needs testing) specifically to address your problem with speedbar. Since I'm not using speedbar I need more info from you of what the desired behaviour and what's wrong with current behaviour(screenshots and screencasts much appreciated;p).

Thank you very much. I will provide you with more info as time permits. Thank you for your patience.

Well. I'm closing it. As it seems like you've lost interest and it works for me with https://github.com/Bad-ptr/persp-mode.el#speedbar . ;) Feel free to reopen.
