Severity: wishlist
Raised by Edward O'Connor in emacs-devel thread [1], filing in
bugtracker so it doesn't get lost over the feature freeze period.
Emacs doesn't appear to currently provide a hook that is reliably called
when the _display_ geometry changes on graphical window systems. e.g.
screen resolution changed by user, monitor hotplugging.
Emacs frame/window geometry might sometimes be considered to remain the
same by the window system terms despite changing overall display
geometry, so e.g. window-configuration-change-hook is not always run
when the display geometry changes.
Attached is an initial x11-only stab at an implementation that calls
window-configuration-change-hook when display geometry changes, though a
separate hook would be another design option.
For ns, Edward also mentioned:
"On GNUStep and Mac OS X, applications can listen for
NSApplicationDidChangeScreenParametersNotification for this sort of thing"
Dunno about w32 as yet, but presumably it has something similar.
