Hi Nicolas, Thanks, that's interesting.
When I do Meta-Shift-Right on your example (with, as in yours, the region set to the first two lines): * H1 ** H11 * H2 I get * H1 *** H11 * H2 It's not a problem with key binding, because I get the same result if I execute the command 'org-demote-subtree'.

Only the line at point is pro- or de- moted. I cannot reproduce it. E.g., in the following document, where region boundaries are marked with |, |* H1 ** H11| * H2 using M-Right gives ** H1 *** H11 * H2 Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
