Hey all,

Today I was re-arranging my headings. While doing that I faced this
issue.  For example consider the following org file contents.

* Level 1
** Level 2
*** Level 3
**** Level 4
**** Level 4
**** Level 4

If I keep the cursor on Level 3 heading and press M-left, Shouldn't the
number of '*'s for the headings Level 4 become 3?

Thanks and Regards
Noorul

To move the children of the heading, you'll have to use M-S-left.

M-left/right moves only the individual heading.

M-S-left/right moves the heading and all subtrees.

No.  M-left changes only this headline.  You want S-M-left to change the
entire tree.

HTH,

No, the default is to move only that line.  Try M-shift-left instead to
move the "tree".
