The horizontal splitting is controlled by the arg HORIZ-P of bbdb-pop-up-window. This is a predicate generated by calling bbdb-mua-window-p. Essentially, this says that BBDB will split *a* window used by your MUA that is big enough for splitting. (The concept used here by bbdb v3 is the same used by v2.) You could try instead something like (untested) (defun bbdb-mua-window-p () "Return lambda function matching the selected MUA window. This return value can be used as arg HORIZ-P of `bbdb-display-records'." `(lambda (window) (eq window ,(selected-window)))) This tries to split the selected window (and no other window). Or you replace the var bbdb-mua-mode-alist in bbdb-mua-window-p by something that matches your needs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
