In a 2 window setup, is there a way to make all temporary popup buffers (help, compile, occur, etc) always open in a specific window?

For example, I have a left and right window. I do most of my work in the left window. When I lookup something in help it opens in the right window which is what I want.

But let’s say I’m in the right window already and look up help, it will open in the left window. Is there a way to make it always open in the right?

    I am looking for something similar, I also do my edits in the left window, if I open a read-only buffer (man page, help, helpfull, info …) I would prefer it will always open on the right side. I can’t help you, but I hope someone else can.
