Hi Eric, Thanks for your answers.
I've just checked out the code from CVS and it is neat. If you'd like I could take a shot at adding the addtional features from my code and creating a patch for semantic-fold.el.

That is in CVS in semantic-decorate.el. I'll take a look.

What I'm trying to do is quite simple. Currently, if I unfold a tag, make some edits inside and then move outside it, then the next time the idle-timer kicks in and the tag is reparsed, it gets folded again. What I'd like is that it remember the fact that I unfolded the tag and not fold it. The simplest way to do this would be to somehow not clear the decorations on the tag at all, since any edits would not require them to be changed. Perhaps the <decoration-style>-highlight-default function could get called only for new tags, while something like <decoration-style>-update-after-edits could get called when the tag is updated. But I don't know much about semantic internals, so this might not make sense. In that case I just can store the fold state as an attribute on the tag overlay or somewhere else.
