I currently have `helm-split-window-in-side-p` set to `t`  and `helm-split-window-default-side` set to  `other` and I  am reasonably happy with it, except of the case when split happens on the right. Then the distance between minibuffer and helm completion is too big.\r\n\r\nIs there anything in helm that comes close to either of the following:\r\n\r\n1)  helm completion buffer to  contain its own pseudo minibuffer line. Preferably on the top of the completion buffer.  Then distance between the candidates and line where I type is zero - an ideal case.\r\n2) `helm-split-window-default-side` to accept `below-left` value.  In other words, I want helm to always split left or bottom window and display candidates close to minibuffer. \r\n3) display candidates in the minibuffer (like ivy does)\r\n\r\nThanks."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/emacs-helm/helm/issues/comments/112370783","html_url":"https://github.com/emacs-helm/helm/issues/1064#issuecomment-112370783","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/emacs-helm/helm/issues/1064","id":112370783,"user":{"login":"vspinu","id":1363467,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1363467?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu","html_url":"https://github.com/vspinu","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/vspinu/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-06-16T10:02:17Z","updated_at":"2015-06-16T10:02:17Z","body":">>> Thierry Volpiatto on Mon, 15 Jun 2015 21:39:01 -0700 wrote:\n\n> What I propose is replicating what we have in minibuffer in the\n> header-line. \n\n\nGreat idea.
