* possible bug: TAB after elipsis

If the cursor is after the elipsis on a folded entry like this:

	**** Some entry...|

pressing TAB doesn't expand the entry, or in fact, do anything useful  
at all. Is it possible to get it to expand the entry, or am I missing  
something?

Thanks,

   -Anthony

Cursor after the dots means the cursor is no longer in the headline,
in fact it is no longer in the entry at all.

But neither is it in the following entry, surely?

I agree with the original reporter that this goes against expectations.
Pressing TAB *anywhere* on the same line of a collapsed item should
expand it as normal, no? Can this be fixed?

Well, that may be technically correct, but from a UI point of view it isn't. We're still one the same (head)_line_, no?

Not that I find this an important issue to fix, mind you :-)

Cheers,
Peter.

In my limited experience, I have already encountered this and been
surprised. I can see it both ways:

- On one hand: technically, the lead up of asterisks and the actual text
define the headline itself, as Carsten has pointed out.

- On the other hand, from a user standpoint I think it would be convenient.
I am not well versed in my keyboard-shortcut-fu, but I'm practicing and use
M-a/e a bit. One of the reasons this behavior is a bit annoying is that M-a
leads one to the spot /after/ an ellipsis. From there I want to press tab
and see the headline... but no dice. I admit that I can begin to use the
shortcuts specifically for navigating headlines. Learning a little at a time
and so currently I don't.

Anyway, my vote goes to expand it, even if technically the cursor is after
the 'body' since the 'body' is represented by the ellipsis. I think once it
is folded it serves only as a representation of the headline, not anything
useful having to do with actual folded text anymore.

I was thinking about this a bit more. Is it possible to meet in the  
middle and restrict the cursor so that it can't go past the last  
character in the headline, like this:

	*** Some entry|...

I suggest this because if you do type after the elipsis, the text goes  
right on the end of the folded entry, which I believe is undesirable  
as well; It means that part of the entry is invisible, and part is  
visible. Limiting the cursor would solve both problems. Is this even  
feasible?

Regards,

   -Anthony

I have not been following closely this thread, but I believe customizing 
"org-special-ctrl-a/e" might bring you a long way towards the behaviour 
you want. I suggest you give it a try.

,----[ (info "(org)Headlines") ]
| Documentation:
| Non-nil means `C-a' and `C-e' behave specially in headlines and items.
| 
| When t, `C-a' will bring back the cursor to the beginning of the
| headline text, i.e. after the stars and after a possible TODO keyword.
| In an item, this will be the position after the bullet.
| When the cursor is already at that position, another `C-a' will bring
| it to the beginning of the line.
| 
| `C-e' will jump to the end of the headline, ignoring the presence of tags
| in the headline.  A second `C-e' will then jump to the true end of the
| line, after any tags.  This also means that, when this variable is
| non-nil, `C-e' also will never jump beyond the end of the heading of a
| folded section, i.e. not after the ellipses.

This awesome. If this equivalent existed for M-a/e and M-f/b, I would be
very happy with the result. Seem reasonable -- when on a folded headline, I
just can't think of a reason someone would want to interact with the
headline after the ellipsis. It even, as someone else mentioned, can ge one
into trouble -- press the wrong key or delete after it and you're removing
text you can't even see... but are able to interact with!

Thanks for this, memmon.

Well, after all, its just "Plain Text" you are editing.
Whenever there is an Elipsis, there is a convenient "hack" in the
display hiding what you don't want to see, but it is never the less a
hack. So I got into the habbit that, whenever I edit a line that 
contains "...", I unfold it first; whenever it is folded, I only 
a ) view it or 
b) navigate with the org commands like the speed keys
   (http://orgmode.org/manual/Speed-keys.html) or 
c) use the org structure editing command 
(http://orgmode.org/manual/Structure-editing.html).

For extensive editing with emacs board tools, there is always 
"M-x show-all". 

So, I agree, whenever there are ellipsis, editing "it ... can
get one into trouble". So I just don't ;).

Very cool and good point about unfolding. I've basically been doing the same
things.

Thanks for the speed keys link, especially. I've just got to sit down and
read the whole manual some weekend... there's so much and since I am usually
searching under 'problem-based' motivation, there's so many helpful things I
might never find that way!

Sorry about the premature post - send key malfunction :)

One other thing I've done for dealing with folded text is use my binding
for F9-v which toggles visibility mode on and off.  This unfolds
_everything_ and makes it possible to see what you are changing (usually
because I accidentally edited something in a folded region and want to
see exactly what I'm undoing to fix it)

(global-set-key (kbd "<f9> v") 'visible-mode)

HTH,
Bernt

Not sure whether I'm talking about the same phenomenon, but I have
started almost routinely adding a tag at the end of every headline
inserted by my remember templates.  Without the tag, it'seems it's
hard to move past the end of the line cleanly to edit the contents.
With a tag, using the custom \C-a/e behavior alluded to above, its a
cinch.

I am annoyed by this.  It seems wrong, and I assumed there is a
workaround somewhere, if I looked hard enough.  Again, maybe this is
another problem.

I don't think I can reproduce this.

Can you please make your explanation more detailed, with an example,  
with your setting for org-special-control-a/e, and with a step by step  
guide on how to hit any problems?


Thanks

Hello, Carsten:

I have to admit you are right, at least to the extent I cannot now
reproduce this behavior. I also have to admit that I haven't been
aware of that behavior for a while.

I will attempt to reproduce it for a day or two, and see if I can send
you a "working" example.

With apologies,

Alan
