Wspecial-worf-add destroys nested org structure, bug?

[thorstengrothe]

I open a new issue because it has not much to do with my issue a a couple of days ago.. I do not have redefined any worf-mode keys ins this scenario.

Take this simple structure of a org file:

* Testing A
   ** Testing a
   ** Testing b
* Testing B

go to *** Testing A** headline press i to fold it and hit a (wspecial-worf-add) to insert a new heading below. The result looks like this:

The command inserts the heading after **Testing b, is this a bug?

When I hit c (change mode) + a it works without problems. This are my settings for blank lines in org-mode.

(setq org-blank-before-new-entry
        '((heading . auto)
          (plain-list-item . auto)))

I commented them out but it does not help.

Here's the state of the buffer when I press a when folded:

* Testing A...
* |
* Testing B

It's consistent with a when unfolded:

* Testing A
** Testing a
** Testing b
* |
* Testing B

Are you getting something else, it's not clear from the screenshot? Can you write down the buffer state as text?

The intention of a is to add a new heading below on the same level.
And ca will add a new heading above, also on the same level.

Ok after some testing I found following out...

Start position:

* |Testing A ...
* Testing B

Press a when folded, result looks like this:

* Testing A|...
* Testing B

Go back to beginning of Testing A... and press i nothing happens, press /, structure looks so:

* |Testing A
** Testing a
** Testing b
*
* Testing B

Now go back to Testing A and press i again, suddenly folding works and it looks like this:

* |Testing A...
*
* Testing B

Now back to start positon:

* |Testing A ...
* Testing B

unfold * |Testing A... and press a, result:

* Testing A
** Testing a
** Testing b
*|
* Testing B

Now the last test with the start position:

* |Testing A ...
* Testing B

Run M-x org-insert-heading-respect-content, now it works fine and looks so:

* Testing A...
*|
* Testing B

I guess it has something to do with empty lines between the headers that org needs to distinguish the structure?

I hope it's clear enough now, so you can reproduce the error?

Still can't reproduce with emacs -Q.

I added a new setup to improve reproduction. Clone the repo and make update && make plain.

Thanks for the support and the setup. I installed it and made some tests and I found the reason for the problem. Pretty simple, this works fine, because there is no space between the lines.

* |A
** a
** b
* c

This works not, because there is an empty line between b and c but if you fold * A you don't see the empty line and it fails, if you delete the line between ** b and * c it works again.

* |A
** a
** b

* c

Next I started with:

* A
* |B

If you pres a everything is fine but if you try this example:

* A
* B

* |C

and press a org inserts automatically an empty line like this:

* A
* B

* C

*|

and I think this is the problem. So it has nothing to to with worf it's a orgmode problem, very strange..

Can you reproduce this now?

[abo-abo]

Can you reproduce this now?

I reproduce it, but this is the expected behavior of worf-add. It looks at the spacing before the current heading and reproduces it for the new heading.
This feature was requested by a user, and I find it convenient as well.

[thorstengrothe]

Ok, thanks for explanation, I found another reason for this behaviour. In my .init.el I got

(org-hide-block-all)

this made problems to add a new heading. I disabled this and with no space after the last line it works now fine:

* Test
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 Code
#+end_src
* Next Heading

It's important that source blocks ar not folded otherwise it does not work for me. I guess that was the jumping point.
