Also, this setting may not work right with the out-of-the-box Aquamacs use of one-buffer-one-frame mode, but I have that turned off anyway, so I’ve never run into that. On my dual-monitor Mac, I have to resize it, which is annoying, but I haven’t taken the time to figure out the right code for it. (setq ediff-window-setup-function 'ediff-setup-windows-plain) You get that withīy customizing ediff-window-setup-function or by The relevant page is at or in Info, in its own manual.įor what it’s worth, I use the “plain” setup for ediff windows, that puts everything in one big frame, with the files side by side and the controls in a window across the bottom, since I want it all on one display.

Aquamacs setups manual#

The ediff manual explains a little bit of the machinery you can tweak to get the layout to work for you. aquamacs-devel 130 of 4040 Aquamacs Devel is a group for everyone interested in the development of Aquamacs Emacs, the Emacs for the Mac.

In other words, ediff really has no good idea how your monitors are set up. To get information for each physical monitor, use Refers to the pixel width for all physical monitors associated

But that does not appear to be the problem here.įor graphical terminals, note that on 'multi-monitor' setups this There is an issue with Aquamacs picking up the physical dimensions of the monitor rather than a display (making Aquamacs inconsistent with other emacs builds). It's worth noting that in emacs world there is a distinction between a display and a monitor. So maybe you can configure the placement more to your liking. The good news is that it appears the placement of the ediff control frame can be customized. (You can use M-: to evaluate the above expressions). Because you likely have two monitors of different pixel widths, there will be some part of that rectangle that does not actually appear. If you evaluate (display-pixel-width) and (display-pixel-height), you will see how wide and tall emacs thinks your setup is. You can confirm this by checking the pixel dimensions for the emacs display, which is all of the monitors together. I think your intuition about the placement of the ediff control frame is correct.
