26.3: Frame Parameters

A frame has many parameters that control its appearance and behavior. Just what parameters a frame has depends on what display mechanism it uses.

Frame parameters exist for the sake of window systems. A terminal frame has a few parameters, mostly for compatibility's sake; only the height, width and buffer-predicate parameters really do something.

  • Parameter Access How to change a frame's parameters.
  • Initial Parameters Specifying frame parameters when you make a frame.
  • X Frame Parameters List of frame parameters.
  • Size and Position Changing the size and position of a frame.
