i would like when i invoke compare of 2 files, that BBEdit show me on my primary.

Anyone know how to do ?

I am set up that way. It's been a while, but I believe I did this using BBEdit's Window -> Save Default [...] Window menu command. The command will be named Save Default Differences Results Window if you have the differences window active.

As the manual says:

Save Default <type of > Window
The Save Default Window command stores the position and size of the front window in BBEdit’s preferences, and BBEdit will create all new windows of the same type with the stored position and size.

By default, new windows always stack down and right 20px. If you have saved a default window size, and that window is of full screen height, new windows will just stack to the right, and preserve their saved height. Each type of window has its own default position and size. For instance, the default position and size for project windows is different from the default position and size for text windows.

Window position and size preferences are also keyed to the active screen configuration, so if you frequently switch screen layouts (as when connecting an external display to a portable), you can save separate default window preferences which will be applied depending on which screen configuration is active.
