Subject: property list indentation and TODO state changes
Date: Thu, 03 Sep 2015 09:09:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <82zj131wfh.fsf@jobim-via-gmail.com> (raw)

Rather than try to discuss the issue, I'll just give (hopefully
simple enough) steps which will reproduce it.

Visit an org-mode buffer, with the following contents:

#---------------
#+STARTUP: logdrawer
#+TODO: APPT(a) | DONE(d!)

* APPT <2015-09-03 Thu +1m> ack
  :PROPERTIES:
  :FOO:      Bar
  :END:
#---------------

With point on the line "* APPT ...", do C-t d i.e. (org-todo) and then
choose "d".

The file is then transformed as follows:

---------------
#+STARTUP: logdrawer
#+TODO: APPT(a) | DONE(d!)

* APPT <2015-10-03 Wed +1m> ack
:PROPERTIES:
  :FOO:      Bar 
  :END:
  :LOGBOOK:
  :LAST_REPEAT: [2015-09-03 Thu 09:01]
  - State "DONE"       from "APPT"       [2015-09-03 Thu 09:01]
  :END:
---------------

The behavior of the indentation on the line containing ":PROPERTIES:"
seems odd.

And I think the :LAST_REPEAT: line should have instead appeared in the
property list, rather than in the LOGBOOK.

Note that if instead the starting state is

---------------
#+STARTUP: logdrawer
#+TODO: APPT(a) | DONE(d!)

* APPT <2015-09-03 Wed +1m> ack
:PROPERTIES:
  :FOO:      Bar 
  :END:
  :LOGBOOK:
  - [2015-09-03 Thu] a comment
  :END:
---------------

(i..e there is "already a LOGBOOK") then C-t d results in

---------------
* APPT <2015-10-03 Sat +1m> ack
:PROPERTIES:
  :FOO:      Bar
  :LAST_REPEAT: [2015-09-03 Thu 09:04]
  :END:
  :LOGBOOK:
  - State "DONE"       from "APPT"       [2015-09-03 Thu 09:04]
  - [2015-09-03 Thu] a comment
  :END:
---------------

so the LAST_REPEAT works as expected, but the indentation is still odd.

org-version: 8.3.1 (from elpa).

Best,
george
