What is the difference between those frames showing the same buffer (is it just to display two different parts of a buffer, if so do the various frames play different roles? Are they on different screens? Can you see their names in the title bar? ...)I can't answer any of those questions.So you're not faced with this problem in practice. It's just a hypothetical issue?
Here is an example I tend to run into. I have a large frame where I am doing most of my work. I have popped up two smaller frames to provide reference to different parts of the same file. I wish to use the buffers>frames> menu to select one of the three frames displaying portions of the file. One, I am editing in, the other two, I have for reference.
Not at all hypothetical, although I am more inclined to use a keyboard command, rather than the mouse, so somewhat contrived.
