I've never been able to get drawers to go through a visibility cycle,
and so have always avoided using them, but now I have a use-case in
which they would be very handy.
Here's my "not working" process:
+ type some sample text.
+ select the region and do `C-c C-x d'
+ I'm queried for the title of the drawer and type "test"
The result looks like this:
:testdrawer:
test content
:END:
However, when I put point on :testdrawer: and hit TAB, it doesn't go
through any kind of cycle---just sits there.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you,
steven arntson

I've always had to put the drawer title in a line with all the drawer
names like this:
#+DRAWERS: EXPANSION PROPERTIES CLOCK LOGBOOK TESTDRAWER

I gave this a try, adding
#+DRAWERS: DATA
and then created a drawer:
:DATA:
test data
:END:
and I still can't get it to do anything when I put point on `DATA'. I
did `C-h k' just to verify that TAB is running `org-cycle', which it is.
I'm perplexed!

For the list: Bob wrote me the solution over email:

It worked perfectly.
Thank you!

C-c C-c on any of the header lines at the top of the file! In this case,
in particular, the #+DRAWERS line.
