Have you tried to bisect?
Not yet. I have many Chinese plates turning at the moment, but I'll try to do that very soon. And I have other problems to report or bisect: - not possible anymore to "cut" a code snippet in two parts with C-c C-v C-d (demarcate block); already reported (without bisect), no answer; - not possible anymore to use C-a or C-e in code blocks to select regions; not reported yet, though I reported similar problems with C-arrows (apparently due to a change which is now officially part of 8.1). IMO, that renders editing of code block in the original buffer much more annoying. > Or has it been like this always?

At the very least, we could agree that point should always be part of the entry we were on; so never go up to the *parent* entry. > May be it would be better to use something like > > (org-display-outline-path nil t) > > to see where you are? I know where I am: I'm using that. But, sometimes (in fact, often), I want to see the rest of the entries (brothers, parents, etc.) in the outline view. I simply expect to land back at the entry I was at, when having cycled 3 times. Best regards, Seb -- Sebastien Vauban
