+ <h4 class="subsection">Fringe Bitmaps</h4>   <p>The <em>fringe bitmaps</em> are the actual bitmaps which represent the logical fringe indicators for truncated or continued lines, buffer boundaries, overlay arrows, etc. Each bitmap is represented by a symbol. These symbols are referred to by the variable <code>fringe-indicator-alist</code>, which maps fringe indicators to bitmaps (see <a href="fringe-indicators">Fringe Indicators</a>), and the variable <code>fringe-cursor-alist</code>, which maps fringe cursors to bitmaps (see <a href="fringe-cursors">Fringe Cursors</a>). </p> <p>Lisp programs can also directly display a bitmap in the left or right fringe, by using a <code>display</code> property for one of the characters appearing in the line (see <a href="other-display-specs">Other Display Specs</a>). Such a display specification has the form </p> <div class="example"> <pre class="example">(<var>fringe</var> <var>bitmap</var> [<var>face</var>])
+</pre>
+</div> <p><var>fringe</var> is either the symbol <code>left-fringe</code> or <code>right-fringe</code>. <var>bitmap</var> is a symbol identifying the bitmap to display. The optional <var>face</var> names a face whose foreground and background colors are to be used to display the bitmap, using the attributes of the <code>fringe</code> face for colors that <var>face</var> didn’t specify. If <var>face</var> is omitted, that means to use the attributes of the <code>default</code> face for the colors which the <code>fringe</code> face didn’t specify. For predictable results that don’t depend on the attributes of the <code>default</code> and <code>fringe</code> faces, we recommend you never omit <var>face</var>, but always provide a specific face. In particular, if you want the bitmap to be always displayed in the <code>fringe</code> face, use <code>fringe</code> as <var>face</var>. </p> <p>For instance, to display an arrow in the left fringe, using the <code>warning</code> face, you could say something like: </p> <div class="lisp"> <pre class="lisp">(overlay-put
+ (make-overlay (point) (point))
+ 'before-string (propertize
+                 "x" 'display
+                 `(left-fringe right-arrow warning)))
+</pre>
+</div> <p>Here is a list of the standard fringe bitmaps defined in Emacs, and how they are currently used in Emacs (via <code>fringe-indicator-alist</code> and <code>fringe-cursor-alist</code>): </p> <dl compact> <dt>

+</dt> <dd>
+<p>This function returns the fringe bitmaps of the display line containing position <var>pos</var> in window <var>window</var>. The return value has the form <code>(<var>left</var> <var>right</var> <var>ov</var>)</code>, where <var>left</var> is the symbol for the fringe bitmap in the left fringe (or <code>nil</code> if no bitmap), <var>right</var> is similar for the right fringe, and <var>ov</var> is non-<code>nil</code> if there is an overlay arrow in the left fringe. </p> <p>The value is <code>nil</code> if <var>pos</var> is not visible in <var>window</var>. If <var>window</var> is <code>nil</code>, that stands for the selected window. If <var>pos</var> is <code>nil</code>, that stands for the value of point in <var>window</var>. </p>
