I thought that display-buffer-alist should be sufficient to control the window placement in Org. Isn't it (on main)? I recall you posted a message about "window management for logging and capturing notes", but you can easily change the capture window location with display-buffer-alist. > My suggestion would be to remove all/most window management from org > itself and simply suggest possible settings for display-buffer-alist, > say. We still need to have reasonable defaults. They can always be overwritten by display-buffer-alist. Best, Ihor
