Duh. FWIW, I was blindly cut/pasting from the *info* pages, which says: (section: 14.5 A cleaner outline view) ,---------------- | 2. _Hiding leading stars_ | You can modify the display in such a way that all leading stars | become invisible. To do this in a global way, configure the | variable `org-hide-leading-stars' or change this on a per-file | basis with | | #+STARTUP: showstars | #+STARTUP: hidestars `---------------- When I actually read it, it's obvious, but given the context, I think it'd be better to have the docs read something like: 2. _Hiding leading stars_ You can modify the display in such a way that all leading stars become invisible. To do this in a global way, configure the variable `org-hide-leading-stars' or add this line to top of the file: #+STARTUP: hidestars Note that the opposite behavior is selected with 'showstars'.
