This section describes commands for altering the display style and window management behavior of the selected frame.
Specify color color for the foreground of the selected frame. (This also changes the foreground color of the default face.)
Specify color color for the background of the selected frame. (This also changes the background color of the default face.)
Specify color color for the cursor of the selected frame.
Specify color color for the mouse cursor when it is over the selected frame.
Specify color color for the border of the selected frame.
Display the defined color names and show what the colors look like. This command is somewhat slow.
Toggle whether or not the selected frame should auto-raise. Auto-raise means that every time you move the mouse onto the frame, it raises the frame.
Note that this auto-raise feature is implemented by Emacs itself. Some
window managers also implement auto-raise. If you enable auto-raise for
Emacs frames in your X window manager, it should work, but it is beyond
Emacs's control and therefore auto-raise-mode
has no effect on
it.
Toggle whether or not the selected frame should auto-lower. Auto-lower means that every time you move the mouse off the frame, the frame moves to the bottom of the stack of X windows.
The command auto-lower-mode
has no effect on auto-lower
implemented by the X window manager. To control that, you must use
the appropriate window manager features.
Specify font font as the principal font for the selected frame.
The principal font controls several face attributes of the
default
face (@pxref{Faces}). For example, if the principal font
has a height of 12 pt, all text will be drawn in 12 pt fonts, unless you
use another face that specifies a different height. @xref{Font X}, for
ways to list the available fonts on your system.
You can also set a frame's principal font through a pop-up menu. Press S-Mouse-1 to activate this menu.
In Emacs versions that use an X toolkit, the color-setting and font-setting functions don't affect menus and the menu bar, since they are displayed by their own widget classes. To change the appearance of the menus and menu bar, you must use X resources (@pxref{Resources X}). @xref{Colors X}, regarding colors. @xref{Font X}, regarding choice of font.
Colors, fonts, and other attributes of the frame's display can also
be customized by setting frame parameters in the variable
default-frame-alist
(@pxref{Creating Frames}). For a detailed
description of frame parameters and customization, see (elisp)Frame Parameters section `Frame Parameters' in The Emacs Lisp Reference Manual.
