I cannot find it. Longer: I'm sure org has the capability I want (it always does) but I cannot find it: as screens get bigger, I find I use more windows in a given frame. Looking at the code leads me to believe that what I want is not implemented but just in case... One typical scenario is a zoom/teams window as one of many windows in a frame during an online meeting. I should say I use exwm so Emacs is my window manager and I have a single frame on each monitor. During these meetings, I often want to capture things (org-capture) and/or add notes (org-add-note) to a heading in a document. Unfortunately, I cannot seem to have the type of control I wish over how new windows pop up for these notes and often my meeting video disappears until the note is complete. In general, I would want org-capture and note logging to use the current window. If there is no such setting, I will play around with display-buffer-alist, I guess. Thank you, eric -- : Eric S Fraga via Emacs 28.0.60, Org release_9.5-93-gd87250 : Latest paper written in org: https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.05096
