Hi all,

When I am working on a narrowed subtree and want to open a footnote for
editing (`C-c C-o': `org-open-at-point'), I get the message: "Definition
is outside narrowed part of buffer". I don't know if there is a
"standard" solution for that (aside from cloning the buffer and/or
removing the restrictions)... I’ve written this simple and quick
workaround, and then remapped `C-c C-o' so that:

`C-u C-c C-o'
      my function
`C-c C-o'
      `org-open-at-point'

┌────
│ (defun my-org-open-fn-indirect-buffer ()
│   (interactive)
│   (if (not (equal (org-element-type (org-element-context)) 'footnote-reference))
│       (error "Not in a footnote reference!")
│     (let* ((el (org-element-context))
│ 	     (label (org-element-property :label el))
│ 	     (buf (buffer-name))
│ 	     (format (format "%s | Note %s" buf label)))
│       (when (get-buffer format)
│ 	(kill-buffer format))
│       (clone-indirect-buffer format t)
│       (setq header-line-format (format "NOTE %s" label))
│       (widen)
│       (org-open-at-point)
│       (recenter 0))))
│ 
│ (defun my-org-open-at-point ()
│   (interactive)
│   (if (equal current-prefix-arg nil)
│       (org-open-at-point)
│     (my-org-open-fn-indirect-buffer)))
│ 
│ (with-eval-after-load 'org
│   (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c C-o") nil)
│   (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c C-o") 'my-org-open-at-point))
└────

Best regards,

Juan Manuel

The "standard" solution is to use <C-c '>

Thanks fot the tip!

org-edit-special > org-edit-footnote-reference: it's clearly explained
in the docstring, and I've been cloning buffers manually all my life
(facepalm).

Sorry for the noise, naturally the "standard" solution is preferable to my
workaround.

Best regards,

Juan Manuel
