That's no exactly right. Since the line was outside the list before, it indents it so that it's still out of it after. With that rule, it's not the first possible level, but the only one. > So in order to achieve the desired behaviour, I have to press space and t= ab > alternatively until the line reaches where it belongs (for that combinati= on > makes it be indented more and more), which becomes tedious when indenting= a few > lines across nested lists. > > Is there a better way to indent to the maximum point ? I suggest C-x r o as it allows to indent more than one line at a time. > (Could tab cycle between all indenting points, like is automagical in pyt= hon ? > That would be truly awesome.) That's not possible. Though, I think it would be quite disturbing. It works well with Python because every line is treated as such. But, in an Org buffer, it would only happen on lines following an item, that is not often enough, IMO, to make it unsurprising. Regards, --=20 Nicolas Goaziou
