0. emacs -Q

1. Type `C-h n'
=> The NEWS buffer is displayed without icons on the header lines,
although the value of `outline-minor-mode-use-buttons' is `(derived-mode
. special-mode)'.

2. Type `C-c C-n' to move point to the first NEWS header "* Installation
Changes in Emacs 29.1" and then type TAB
=> Now there is an outline-close icon (emoji) at the beginning of the
header, the header has lost its first-level fontification and the NEWS
buffer is flagged as modified in the mode line. But instead of hiding
the current header line's body as per outline-cycle, there is no other
change in the buffer.

3. Type TAB again
=> forward-button is executed instead of outline-cycle, indicating that
the line with the icon is now not being treated as an outline header
line.  And typing `M-< C-c C-n' now puts point on the first second level
header below the line with the icon.

4. Move point back to the icon and type RET
=> The icon changes to outline-open but there is otherwise no change in
the outline structure, and the message "Before first heading" is
displayed.

5. Type `C-c @ C-q' (outline-hide-sublevels)
=> The outline-close icon is inserted at the start of the second-level
header below the current line and after the icon only "..."  is
displayed, i.e. all remaing text in the buffer has vanished.
Repeatedly typing RET toggles the icon between outline-open and
outline-close and displays the message "Before first heading" but the
text remains hidden.  (Typing `C-c @ C-a' unhides the text.)


The attached patch appears to fix the problems described above, but the
only buffer using outline-minor-mode beside NEWS that I've tested it on
is *Help* showing the output of describe-bindings, and the seems to work
as expected with the patch (and due to the patch is not flagged as
modified, though that isn't important for *Help*.)

Thanks; patch applied to Emacs 29.

The outline button stuff is still a work in progress, as you've found
out.  I'm not quite sure whether it should be switched on by default in
NEWS buffers -- it doesn't seem to bring much value there.  (As opposed
to in `describe-bindings', where it seems very helpful (since we're
starting out with some parts already folded.)

So I'm pondering whether to add an additional mechanism to say whether a
mode is "opting in" to the buttons or not, but I'm not sure what that
should look like.

I noticed more problems: arrow directions are inverted - when an outline
is hidden the arrow direction is open; when it's shown then the button has
the closed state.

S-TAB (outline-cycle-buffer) is very slow: takes ~3 seconds on a small
NEWS buffer.

Also don't understand why is this change:

         (when outline-minor-mode-highlight
-          (if (and global-font-lock-mode (font-lock-specified-p major-mode))
-              (progn
-                (font-lock-add-keywords nil outline-font-lock-keywords t)
-                (font-lock-flush))
-            (outline-minor-mode-highlight-buffer)))
+          (when (and global-font-lock-mode (font-lock-specified-p major-mode))
+            (font-lock-add-keywords nil outline-font-lock-keywords t)
+            (font-lock-flush))
+          (outline-minor-mode-highlight-buffer))

`outline-minor-mode-highlight-buffer' is intended only for buffers
that don't support font-lock highlighting.

It would be nicer if the color of the button depended on the outline's color,
e.g. blue for the top-level blue outline face, etc.

Since outline-minor-mode-use-buttons uses buffer-match-p, it can have
any condition, including a condition to exclude etc/NEWS, for example.

Thanks Lars.

The arrows behave the same as in *Help* with describe-bindings:
outline-close (downward-pointing) when the body is hidden, outline-open
(leftward-pointing) when the body is shown.  Is that wrong?

Yes, but with that change, arrows are displayed on first visiting the
NEWS buffer; without it, they only appear when typing TAB on an outline
heading.

I guess that would require using suitable images rather than emojis.

I think that's wrong, yes. Every GUI I'm familiar with does it the other 
way:

   > Closed Item
   v Open Item
     > Closed Sub Item

This is the visual style used in GNOME (at least, the theme I'm using), 
MS Windows, macOS, Firefox/Thunderbird, and probably others. More 
importantly, it's also the style Emacs already uses elsewhere: see the 
Customize UI.

The only other style I've seen is "-" for open items and "+" for closed 
(because clicking "+" will *add* the children to the UI and "-" will 
*remove* them). Emacs does that in the speedbar, for example.

Images would be nice; Emacs already has some for the Customize UI that 
could be reused.

For the NEWS file though (and especially programming modes). I still 
think it'd be great to put the buttons in the fringe. That way the 
buttons would never disrupt the contents of the file, e.g. by changing 
how the indentation looks.

However, describe-bindings probably wants the buttons in the body, so 
this would be yet another option, which adds complexity/maintenance 
burden...

This change broke fontification e.g. in diff buffers that now
add outline faces on diff hunks.  So we need another solution.
Maybe on first visiting the NEWS buffer better to call
refontification with font-lock-ensure?

Instead of preparing a lot of different images, maybe it would be
possible to specify a background/foreground color for SVG images.

OTOH, maybe easier would be just to use Unicode arrow characters
instead of emojis?

Agreed, the clickable buttons in the fringe would be great,
and it's easy to implement.

describe-bindings could override the default when necessary.

It seems the problem is somewhere else - in code that uses these definitions,
because here semantically everything is correct: the outline-open button
for opening a section means that the current state of the button is closed.
This assumes that in "outline-open" the word "open" is a verb.

Some users disable both fringes, or only the left fringe, though.

Then it should fall back to other methods.

Oh, dear (as I noted in my OP, I only checked NEWS and *Help* with
describe-binding).  But do you have a recipe to see this?  When I create
a diff with vc-diff I don't see outline faces on the hunks.

Yes, I mentioned this only to remind that another methods should be 
available.  And if another method is available, perhaps the chosen method 
should also depend on a configuration variable.  Some users may prefer 
in-buffer buttons even if they do not disable the fringes.

This may be irrelevant/off-topic; if so, please ignore.

Whenever we have an icon or character (e.g. +, -)
that acts as a button to expand or contract some
hierarchical info by clicking the mouse, would it be
good to also have a mouseover tooltip there, that
lets you know a toggle key that both expands and
contracts (based on point being on that line or
whatever)?

Emacs typically has keyboard keys to toggle things,
and expanding/contracting together toggle.

Presumably there's a toggle key for the display
change involved here (if not, shouldn't there be?),
and it might be good to let someone using a mouse
know that there's an alternative to try.

The mouseover help won't show unless you hesitate
with the mouse over the icon/character, so this
shouldn't be annoying etc.

Just an idea.  (Maybe this is already available?)

The minimal test case is this:

  (setq-default outline-minor-mode-highlight t)
  (add-hook 'diff-mode-hook 'outline-minor-mode)

Then the first lines of diff is highlighted with blue outline-1 face,
the @@-lines with outline-2 face, etc.

This is because outline-font-lock-keywords and
outline-minor-mode-highlight-buffer have slightly different
interpretations of the values for outline-minor-mode-highlight.

This could be improved, but in any case both these functions
should not be applied at the same time.

Yes, I see it now, thanks.

Ok.  I'm not familiar enough with the intricacies of font-lock to whip
up a quick fix and can't afford to spend a lot of time on it, so I hope
someone better qualified than me will do it.

I guess what is needed here is to find the right place to call
outline--fix-up-all-buttons on first visiting the NEWS buffer.

No, they're nouns.

Yes, I agree.  The in-buffer buttons look nice in *Help*, but in a more
text-like buffer like NEWS (and which also opens unfolded by default),
they're distracting.
