Subject: [PATCH] org-capture-place-item better alignment for new lists.
Date: Tue, 7 Oct 2014 11:56:11 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141007105611.GC3627@embecosm.com> (raw)
Creating an entry in org-capture-templates of type item adds entries
into a list, however, if the list is empty then the first list item
will be indented to depth 0 (so hard on the left) like this:
* Top Level
** Second Level
- item #1
- item #2
- item #3
I prefer to indent content, including lists, to a level matching the
parent, so something like this:
* Top Level
** Second Level
- item #1
- item #2
- item #3
The patch below changes org-capture-place-item so that, when starting
a new list, the items are indented as in the second example above.
The existing behaviour is maintained when adding additional items to a
list, that is the indentation of new items will match the indentation
on items already in the list.
All feedback welcome,
Thanks,
Andrew
lisp/org-capture.el (org-capture-place-item): When starting a
new list use (1+ org-current-level) rather than just 0 for the
indentation. This ensures new lists are indented under their
parent element.
