Subject: bug#37840: Missing in the Emacs manuals:
Date: Mon, 2 Dec 2019 02:35:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <95A8B31B-1FC5-4A28-A666-EBEE3791F206@univie.ac.at> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <d6fe9a85-9194-9341-3365-2094806b3df4@gmx.at>
Hi,
I cannot solve the following problem with Ediff:
Suppose I have two buffers open, say fooA.tex and fooB.tex, each in its own frame. Then I invoke Ediff to compare both buffers. Now suppose I kill the buffers fooA.tex and fooB.tex _before_ I quit the Ediff control panel. If I then quit the Ediff control buffer, it happens that some of the auxiliary Ediff buffers pops up, but _not_ in the geometry customized with display-buffer-alist for *something* type buffers, but with a geometry according to default-frame-list modulo that the position is that of one of the former frames for fooA.tex or fooB.tex, depending on which was buffer A in Ediff's terminology. Thus, I can get a total frame layout which should not exist according to the customizations according to default-frame-alist and display-buffer-alist.
How can I sole this? Or, even better, how can I manage that in the above scenario no buffer pops up if I close the Ediff control panel? Has the problem maybe something to do with the fact that the frame of the Ediff control panel has no minibuffer?
Thanks,
Konrad
