It's worse for me: even thinking doesn't help me resolve the ambiguity, because I think both interpretations make sense. So I always end up doing C-h k C-x 2 to see what that operation (which I know well) is called. It might be worthwhile trying to come up with a different terminology that doesn't suffer from that ambiguity. E.g. use "left-right" for one and "up-down" for the other. Stefan
