I am using outline-minor-mode and have changed outline-regexp, outline-heading-alist.
Have seen that for some major modes (e.g. emacs-lisp-mode), with outline-minor-mode-highlight
set to 'override nil), one has to call (setq-local outline-level 'outline-level) for the
heading faces to take effect.
But without the call to outline-minor-mode-highlight, the headings defined by outline-regexp
still get recognised, but not the outline levels.
It is not evident at this point, which major modes require a call to (setq-local outline-level 'outline-level).
There is not enough information in the documentation to get a custom headings setup operational.
Furthermore, although a call to (setq-local outline-level 'outline-level) solved the problem,
a better approach would be for outline-minor-mode to automatically detect whether a custom heading
was specified, and thus act accordingly. It would be quite a struggle for people to perceive the
need to call (setq-local outline-level 'outline-level), as the change is only needed for certain
major modes only.

Why are you creating a new bug report instead of replying to the existing?

You provided a solution for my bug report with
(setq-local outline-level 'outline-level)
This is about a request to handle custom headings better, otherwise improving
documentation on how to set up custom headings and a simpler way to figure out
which major modes would require the additional outline-level call.
