Re: Org-Capture Window Behavior

[Amol Vaidya <amolvaidya06@gmail.com>]

Thank you for your response.

I have tested this with a clean installation of Emacs, where I
installed Org mode 9.7, but I am still encountering the same behavior.

For reference, I’ve attached a screen recording that demonstrates the
issue. I’ve also verified that Org 9.7 is being used, as shown in the
Messages buffer in the left-most window.

Please let me know if you need any further information or if there are
any settings I may have overlooked.

Regards,
