Re: [O] Possible bug: Can not search for text in links - only description
hi ken, that's right, my point was that perhaps it is relevant, not that one would set the variable. for example, perhaps there is a way that timestamps can have an invisible property and thus be subject to this variable. of course, it might not be possible, if timestamps do not use overlays, but it might inspire a more general fix. samuel On 3/31/15, Ken Mankoff wrote: > > On 2015-03-20 at 13:53, Samuel Wales wrote: >> hmm: >> >> === >> search-invisible is a variable defined in `isearch.el'. >> Its value is open >> >> Documentation: >> If t incremental search/query-replace can match hidden text. >> A nil value means don't match invisible text. >> When the value is `open', if the text matched is made invisible by >> an overlay having an `invisible' property and that overlay has a property >> `isearch-open-invisible', then incremental search will show the contents. >> (This applies when using `outline.el' and `hideshow.el'.) >> ... >> === > > > Note that setting search-invisible to t means that collapsed segments no > longer expand. > > -k. > > -- The Kafka Pandemic: http://thekafkapandemic.blogspot.com Ramsay's disease DOES progress.

FWIW, I completely agree. I would be happy to provide a patch for this, but I'm not sure how to get the link's description inside org-export-resolve-fuzzy-link. AFAICT, the `link' object passed to this function has properties as determined by `org-element-link-parser'. The properties listed in the docstring don't include the description. Could anyone provide a hint on how to get the link's description? Regards, Jake
Re: [O] Possible bug: Can not search for text in links - only description
Thanks everybody - many useful comments and ideas. First I must say it makes sense to give the error message, although I was quite surprised. But the message should contain a string one can easily search for. And I guess the most used search function is C-s I think the message should be changes to the description of the link and the target in brackets. This would make searching easier.

I think that the difficulty arises from the fact that links use the invisibility text property. Folded trees, OTOH, use an invisibility overlay. Overlay invisibility is searched (and expanded for matches) when `search-invisible' is set to `open' (the default). While you can /search/ invisible text, AFAICT, isearch has no machinery to /show/ invisible text (just to "open" invisibility overlays). You can set `search-invisible' to `t', but then your search is likely to end up on the ellipses for a folded subtree (since it will no longer unfold). With `search-invisible' set to `t', point does end up on (still invisible) matches. I tried cobbling together a hack like: (add-hook 'isearch-update-post-hook (lambda () (if isearch-hidden (org-remove-from-invisibility-spec '(org-link)) (add-to-invisibility-spec '(org-link) (defun jg/isearch () (interactive) (let ((search-invisible t)) (isearch-forward))) But besides not opening overlays, I think you'd need a similar function on a couple more isearch hooks to make this work.

For the problem at hand, there's no need to search multiple buffers, just to search the invisible text in a given buffer. For the (hopefully) infrequent case of finding a mistyped link, `org-toggle-link-display' or M-x occur should be adequate.

A nil value means don't match invisible text.

org-show-context-detail may also be relevant: org-show-context-detail is a variable defined in `org.el'. Its value is ((isearch . lineage) (bookmark-jump . lineage) (default . ancestors)) Documentation: Alist between context and visibility span when revealing a location. Some actions may move point into invisible locations. As a consequence, Org always expose a neighborhood around point. How much is shown depends on the initial action, or context. Valid contexts are agenda when exposing an entry from the agenda org-goto when using the command `org-goto' (C-c C-j) occur-tree when using the command `org-occur' (C-c / /) tags-tree when constructing a sparse tree based on tags matches link-searchwhen exposing search matches associated with a link mark-goto when exposing the jump goal of a mark bookmark-jump when exposing a bookmark location isearchwhen exiting from an incremental search defaultdefault for all contexts not set explicitly ... but I haven't followed through to see exactly how to use it.
