Hi Ihor, After looking through the code in org-fold-core.el, I see the following: org-fold-core.el: Line 1413 The comments in that section talk about preserving/not-preserving folding when copying among indirect buffers. But the lines at the afore-mentioned position indicate that the solution for how to do this when pasting to a non-indirect buffer. Note that emacspeak needs a solution to the above, --- at present, when it tries to speak a folded line in org-9.6 with org-fold-core-style set to text-properties, the invisibility gets lost, which is why content that is folded in the original buffer gets spoken by emacspeak. While we wait for a clean way for a third-party app to handle this, can you tell me what I need to do on my end, e.g. perhaps inherit some magic property from the source buffer into the scratch buffer where I manipulate the text before speaking it perhaps? -- Thanks, --Raman(I Search, I Find, I Misplace, I Research) ♈ Id: kg:/m/0285kf1 🦮
