Hi,
Is it possible to have a line between two tress which should not hide when
folded, like the following example ?
Unfolded state:
===========
* Heading 1
** Heading 1-1
** Heading 1-2
AT THIS POINT, A LINE WHICH SHOULD NOT BE FOLDED
* Heading 2
** Heading 2-1
** Heading 2-2
Folded state
=========
* Heading 1
AT THIS POINT, A LINE WHICH SHOULD NOT BE FOLDED
* Heading 2
Thanks.

No this is not possible. Any text following a headline is by definition
a part of the tree and will be folded with it.
Maybe if you tell us what you are trying to achieve, we can suggest an
alternative?

Hi,
What I am trying to achieve is an 'ordinary' heading, which is not in the
beginning of the document but somewhere in the middle of the document,
before a particular level one heading of a tree. At present the 'ordinary'
heading gets hidden in the previous tree/subtree.
Unfolded state:
===========
* Heading 1
** Heading 1-1
** Heading 1-2
AT THIS POINT, A LINE (heading for the section below) WHICH SHOULD NOT BE
FOLDED
* Heading 2
** Heading 2-1
** Heading 2-2
Thanks.

This sounds a bit superfluous. Why can't you include that text in the
heading "Heading 2". I understand what you are trying to do, and it is
not possible with Org (at least not without some dirty hack), but you
still haven't said _why_ you are attempting this. Is this document
aimed for export to a specific backend, or is it just the way you want
the org buffer to look? If it is about export to a backend, you should
look for solutions in the backend and not Org.
Hope this helps,
PS: please do not top post, it becomes difficult to follow the
discussion after a while.

In org-mode, one star IS an 'ordinary' heading. In Org mode, no stars is
'only some text, not a heading'. That is the whole way it is set
up. Your first line should (normally) always have one star, and 'no stars'
should be saved for use as the lowest of all levels, not the highest.
It seems illogical that one star is the highest heading, two stars is a
lower-level heading, and so on, while zero stars is not a heading at all
- but if you try to change that fact, you will be always fighting with
org-mode instead of using it.

" Is this document aimed for export to a specific backend," - NO
" or is it just the way you want the org buffer to look?" - YES
The org-mode is a fantastic tool the way it is. I was just enquiring
whether it is possible or not.
In one of my document I have to write few lines like "The following case is
applicable only if you want to do this or that." and then a tree structure
which instructs something.
Orgmode is powerful enough to design the document in a way to meet the
objective. I will think about that. Thanks to all of you.

I also do think that you did not express the thing you want to
achieve yet. But if it is purely cosmetically, you might be happy
with:
| * Heading 1
| ** Heading 1-1
| ** Heading 1-2
| * =====================================================
| * Heading 2
| ** Heading 2-1
| ** Heading 2-2

Hi,
this is a easy one ;)
Unfolded state:
===========
* Heading 1
** Heading 1-1
** Heading 1-2
* ---------------------------------
* Heading 2
** Heading 2-1
** Heading 2-2
Folded state
=========
* Heading 1
* ----------------------------------
* Heading 2
Done, problem solved :D
