A window can get resized explicitly by using one of the functions from
the preceding section or implicitly, for example, when resizing an
adjacent window, when splitting or deleting a window (@pxref{Splitting
Windows}, @pxref{Deleting Windows}) or when resizing the window's frame
(@pxref{Size and Position}).
It is possible to avoid implicit resizing of a specific window when
there are one or more other resizable windows on the same frame. For
this purpose, Emacs must be advised to @dfn{preserve} the size of that
window. There are two basic ways to do that.
@defvar window-size-fixed
If this buffer-local variable is non-@code{nil}, the size of any window
displaying the buffer cannot normally be changed. Deleting a window or
changing the frame's size may still change the window's size, if there
is no choice.
If the value is @code{height}, then only the window's height is fixed;
if the value is @code{width}, then only the window's width is fixed.
Any other non-@code{nil} value fixes both the width and the height.
If this variable is @code{nil}, this does not necessarily mean that any
window showing the buffer can be resized in the desired direction. To
determine that, use the function @code{window-resizable}.
@xref{Resizing Windows}.
@end defvar
Often @code{window-size-fixed} is overly aggressive because it inhibits
any attempt to explicitly resize or split an affected window as well.
This may even happen after the window has been resized implicitly, for
example, when deleting an adjacent window or resizing the window's
frame. The following function tries hard to never disallow resizing
such a window explicitly:
@defun window-preserve-size &optional window horizontal preserve
This function (un-)marks the height of window @var{window} as preserved
for future resize operations. @var{window} must be a live window and
defaults to the selected one. If the optional argument @var{horizontal}
is non-@code{nil}, it (un-)marks the width of @var{window} as preserved.
If the optional argument @var{preserve} is @code{t}, this means to
preserve the current height/width of @var{window}'s body. The
height/width of @var{window} will change only if Emacs has no better
choice. Resizing a window whose height/width is preserved by this
function never throws an error.
If @var{preserve} is @code{nil}, this means to stop preserving the
height/width of @var{window}, lifting any respective restraint induced
by a previous call of this function for @var{window}. Calling
@code{enlarge-window}, @code{shrink-window} or
@code{fit-window-to-buffer} with @var{window} as argument may also
remove the respective restraint.
@end defun
@code{window-preserve-size} is currently invoked by the following
functions:
@table @code
@item fit-window-to-buffer
If the optional argument @var{preserve-size} of that function
(@pxref{Resizing Windows}) is non-@code{nil}, the size established by
that function is preserved.
@item display-buffer
If the @var{alist} argument of that function (@pxref{Choosing Window})
contains a @code{preserve-size} entry, the size of the window produced
by that function is preserved.
@end table
@code{window-preserve-size} installs a window parameter (@pxref{Window
Parameters}) called @code{preserved-size} which is consulted by the
window resizing functions. This parameter will not prevent resizing the
window when the window shows another buffer than the one when
@code{window-preserve-size} was invoked or if its size has changed since
then.
The following function can be used to check whether the height of a
particular window is preserved:
@defun window-preserved-size &optional window horizontal
This function returns the preserved height of window @var{window} in
pixels. @var{window} must be a live window and defaults to the selected
one. If the optional argument @var{horizontal} is non-@code{nil}, it
returns the preserved width of @var{window}. It returns @code{nil} if
the size of @var{window} is not preserved.
