Hello,
I'm trying to figure out how drawers work. I see that `C-c C-x d`
provides automatic drawer insertion, and wraps around the region if
active. However, `LOGBOOK` is explicitly excluded from the completion
targets. However, I don't see another way to add a LOGBOOK without
typing the word out manually. This seems strange - is there another
shortcut for adding LOGBOOK drawers? If not, why isn't it allowed as a
completion target?
I'm not complaining, just confused about the preferred workflow for
LOGBOOK drawers.
Best,
Tyler

If you've got org-log-into-drawer set to a non-nil value, the drawer
should be created automatically for you the first time you take a note
on the heading (org-add-note), or switch TODO states in such a way that
records a state-change note. Those are the two purposes of the LOGBOOK
drawer, so you might as well use one or the other to create the drawer.
HTH,
Eric

Thanks. I guess I was re-inventing the notes feature without
understanding how the existing setup worked. It makes sense now.
Best,
Tyler
