Next: Position Parameters, Up: Window Frame Parameters [Contents][Index]
30.4.3.1 Basic ParametersThese frame parameters give the most basic information about the frame. title
and name
are meaningful on all terminals.
display
The display on which to open this frame. It should be a string of the form ‘host:dpy.screen’, just like the DISPLAY
environment variable. See Multiple Terminals, for more details about display names.
display-type
This parameter describes the range of possible colors that can be used in this frame. Its value is color
, grayscale
or mono
.
title
If a frame has a non-nil
title, that title appears in the window system’s title bar at the top of the frame, and also in the mode line of windows in that frame if mode-line-frame-identification
uses ‘%F’ (see %
-Constructs in the Mode Line). This is normally the case when Emacs is not using a window system, and can only display one frame at a time. When Emacs is using a window system, this parameter, if non-nil
, overrides the title determined by the name
parameter and the implicit title calculated according to frame-title-format
. It also overrides the title determined by icon-title-format
for iconified frames. See Frame Titles.
name
The name of the frame. If you don’t specify a name via this parameter, Emacs sets the frame name automatically, as specified by frame-title-format
and icon-title-format
, and that is the frame’s title that will appear on display when Emacs uses a window system (unless the title
parameter overrides it).
If you specify the frame name explicitly when you create the frame, the name is also used (instead of the name of the Emacs executable) when looking up X resources for the frame.
explicit-name
If the frame name was specified explicitly when the frame was created, this parameter will be that name. If the frame wasn’t explicitly named, this parameter will be nil
.
