If a note is not in the alist, it is assigned weight 100, so all notes
with weights less then 100 will be in the beginning, and all notes with
weights more than 100 will be in the end."

Different settings of this have no impact on the record displayed for me.

Sorry, if I expressed myself not clear enough. While using Gnus I'd like
the bbdb record, that pops up when reading articles
of known posters, to consist of only specific fields, like /notes/ ,
/last-subj/ etc. Because the usual pop up window height is 7 lines one
couldn't see all fields at once anyway.
Also I'd like it best to have the 'notes' field in the upper lines.
In all other cases I want bbdb to behave as usual.
The variable bbdb-pop-up-elided-display-fields claims
to fulfill such needs, but does nothing in my setup.

Thank you, that worked, though it wasn't quite what I wanted.
