Hi
I have for example
** DONE G1 :H1:G1:
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: G1
:User1: John
:email1: john@gmail.com
:Start: <2021-02-16 mar>
:End: <2021-05-24 lun>
:STATUS: [ ]
:ST1: [ ]
:Sheet: H1
:Ex: E2
:Ex: E1
:END:
But I would like them to be indented like this
** DONE G1 :H1:G1:
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: G1
:User1: John
:email1: john@gmail.com
:Start: <2021-02-16 mar>
:End: <2021-05-24 lun>
:STATUS: [ ]
:ST1: [ ]
:Sheet: H1
:Ex: E2
:Ex: E1
:END:
Or similar. Is there any function I oversee, that I could use?
Thanks
Uwe Brauer

If your drawers are already written and you want to mass-reindent them
with e.g. C-x h TAB, either make sure point is not on a headline (or TAB
will just cycle visibility) or tweak org-cycle-emulate-tab. Or use
C-x h M-: (indent-for-tab-command).
Not sure how to tell Org how wide indentation should be though.

Thanks, but it did not work. I set the variable
org-adapt-indentation to 'headline-data makes
But when I opened my org file in question I still saw
* TODO G1 <2021-10-21 jue 17:10> :H1:G1: Uwe Brauer
:PROPERTIES:
:ID:
:EMAIL: oub@mat.ucm.es
:Grp1: G1

:Speaker: Uwe
:End:
Even restarting emacs did not help.
I am running emacs 28 (master)
83a915d3dfafd5f3d737afe1e13b75e4dd3aef96
And org master compiled two days ago.
So is this a BUG?
Setting the variable to t seems to be the same case using
org-indent-mode, which is usually try to avoid.

What is the setting for electric-indent-mode in the org buffer?
Also, does org-lint give any warnings about your org file?
The effect of org-adapt-indentation is somewhat confusing to say the
least. The effect of that setting is also dependent on the setting for
electric-indent-mode. Getting the desired result often depends on having
the right setting for both that variable and electric-indent-mode. I've
also found that in some cases, if there are errors in your org file (as
found by org-lint) then everything can go a bit weird as well.

In case that can clear things up:
- org-adapt-indentation dictates what the "canonical" indentation should
be, i.e. what happens when you select the whole text and M-:
(indent-for-tab-command):
- nil (default as of 9.5): nothing is indented;
- t (default before 9.5): drawers and text are indented;
- 'headline-data: drawers are indented.
- electric-indent-mode dictates *what key* causes automatic indentation:
- nil: C-j indents, RET does not,
- t: C-j does not indent, RET does.

Not sure why its original value was t, I don't remember to have used
that, but I might be mistaken.

No, I just checked.

Very odd, maybe I will turn org-indent-mode on just in this buffer.

Electric indent mode was set to t in emacs 26 or 25. At the time, org
did not honour the setting of electric indent mode. A lot of the
confusion around changes to indentation and org-adapt-indentation has
arisen due to changes in org mode to make it compatible with other emacs
modes i.e. make it honour the setting of electric-indent-mode. While
I think this was the right move for the long-term as it makes org mode
behave like other modes, I don't think the impact from this change was
fully understood at the time. This has led to considerable confusion and
changes in default settings for org-adapt-indentation to reduce the
friction for users. While the outcome has likely made org mode more
consistent for new users, it has caused some issues for existing users
and it may take some time for the shock waves to dissipate.

There has been a number of threads about this and org-adapt-indentation
over the last 12 months or so. You might find some help looking through
some of those threads.

Just to make sure I'm not misundertanding: did you try to re-indent the
whole file? You say "when I opened my org file in question I still
saw…", so I'm not sure if you tried to re-indent, or if you merely set
org-adapt-indentation and expected the file to be automatically
re-indented after opening it again.
If the :PROPERTIES: drawer is not indented after doing the following:
M-: (setq org-adapt-indentation 'headline-data)
C-x h
M-: (indent-for-tab-command)
… then yes, there is a bug.

Sure, the reason why it is (now) nil by default is because a fair number
of users on this list have told Org maintainers that they dislike
indented text.
Note that there is a difference between org-adapt-indentation set to t,
and org-indent-mode:
- org-adapt-indentation uses *hard* indentation (Emacs inserts
whitespace which is written to the file),
- org-indent-mode uses *soft* or "visual" indentation (Emacs adds text
properties to shift the text, but no whitespace is written to the
file).

I did all this and it *did not* indent!
So I shall write a BUG report
