Keeping dedicated windows at their original position > and rotating the rest is not a feasible option at the moment IMHO. One more issue: Currently 'rotate-windows' and 'rotate-windows-back' are the only functions in window-x.el to treat dedicated windows specially. All others like 'window-layout-rotate-clockwise' or 'window-layout-transpose' don't care about dedicated windows so these usually will "end up with a different size and position". martin
