You might want to investigate the display-buffer-alist variable.
This article may help:

Also of interest:
M-x winner-mode, then C-c left and C-c right
(kind of undo-redo for windows configurations).

Hello,

as monitors get bigger and bigger, I tend to have lots of (emacs)
windows in a frame.  No matter how many I have, org-capture takes over
the whole frame which is kind of wasteful.  Obviously, I can bring up
any buffer I want while in the capture buffer but it would be nice to
have control over where and how the capture window is created and
placed, along the lines of org-src-window-setup and
org-agenda-window-setup.

Would such a feature be possible, assuming it is not there already.  I
have not found the correct variable should it already be there...

Thanks,
eric
