  • Thanks! Smal questions, first TAB shows all column format I believe than on the second TAB the list becomes wider and its heifght decreases. Would it be possible to show in same height if multiple TABs pressed? Commented Aug 23, 2021 at 20:09
  • Note that *Completions* buffer acts the same way (at least in my setup with fido-mode, tested with M-x prev RET). The end of the documentation C-h f fit-window-to-buffer might be addressing this issue. Though I didn't investigate thoroughly (yet). Commented Aug 24, 2021 at 12:25
  • Actually, after more research, it looks like a bug in ido again to me. The list of completions gets "re-drawn" on the second TAB hit. There'e no such issue with emacs -Q completions. There's a chance I'll dig deeper (I already did but not enough to find the fix). I'll let you know if I have a solution/fix for that. Commented Aug 25, 2021 at 7:32
