Variable: pop-up-frame-alist

pop-up-frame-alist is a customizable variable defined in window.el.gz.

Value

nil

Documentation

Alist of parameters for automatically generated new frames.

If non-nil, the value you specify here is used by the default pop-up-frame-function for the creation of new frames.

Since pop-up-frame-function is used by display-buffer for making new frames, any value specified here by default affects the automatic generation of new frames via display-buffer and all functions based on it. The behavior of make-frame is not affected by this variable.

This option is provided for backward compatibility only. New code should use a pop-up-frame-parameters action alist entry in display-buffer-alist instead. See Info node (elisp) Choosing Window Options in the Emacs Lisp manual.
