org-mode moves point in other window

org-mode moves point in other window

[Thomas Koch]

Hi,

I've got a large org-mode (7.9.2, emacs 24.2.1) table and two windows, top and 
bottom. I shrink the upper window to only show the headline of my table and 
work in the lower window.

When I move with tab in the lower window or recalculate the formula, the upper 
window moves its point to the formula.

How can I make the upper window to remain as it is?

Thank you,

Instead of splitting the window, you can create an indirect buffer.

It will visually be equivalent, and the point in the upper window
will not move when C-cC-c'ing on the formulas.

Hi Bastien,

thank you. First I tried to narrow the indirect buffer only to the headline of 
the table but then the point still jumped to the end of the table and enlarged 
the narrowing to the full table when the column width changed.

Now I left the narrowing to include the full table and the point seem to 
remain where it is even on column resizes.
