Re: [Orgmode] Narrow tSparse Trees layout

You can already achieve this by selecting the whole narrowed subtree (with transient-mark-mode on) and exporting the region. Not really. Its simply a convenience method that I can probably hack for myself, but didn't want to if it already existed. Its simply when I'm drafting I tend to work in subtrees, and it becomes (for my purposes) quite unwieldy when working with large trees (as I tend to). The indent when I'm working with the narrowed buffer is a waste of space, and it also makes it difficult for me to work out what level I'm working at with a simple eyeball at the structure. However I can quite cheerfully see that this is not something most people would want/need. But maybe a narrowed tree should be considered as a selected region by default...

A possible workaround: (require 'scroll-lock) (define-key global-map [(control shift up)] 'scroll-lock-previous-line) (define-key global-map [(control shift down)] 'scroll-lock-next-line) (define-key global-map [(control shift right)] 'alpha-scroll-lock-next-char) (define-key global-map [(control shift left)] 'alpha-scroll-lock-previous-char) (defun alpha-scroll-lock-previous-char () (interactive) (scroll-right 1)) (defun alpha-scroll-lock-next-char () (interactive) (scroll-left 1)) ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Hi Cian, Cian OConnor cian.ocon...@gmail.com writes: It would be nice if there was an option so that narrowed trees are displayed without their normal indentation.

Re: [Orgmode] Narrow tSparse Trees layout
Oh sorry, I was using the wrong terminology. I don't mean sparse trees at all, I meant narrow trees. It would be nice if there was an option so that narrowed trees are displayed without their normal indentation. So for example if narrow a subtree at level 4, then it is displayed as a normal tree at level 1 rather than as a tree starting at level 4 as currently happens.

I presume you have org-hide-leading-stars set to t. If so, what looks like indentation, is really hidden leading stars (see section 14.5 of the manual). I am no expert but I would think that implementing what you want would be difficult. If it really bothers you, perhaps you can promote the tree to level 1 while you are working on it and then demote it before widening again - I think this cure is worse than the disease, but to each his own.
