how to set a block of description to set as done...

[Renato Pontefice]

Hi,
I have this scenario (i.e.):

* issue 1
this is the thescription of issue 1

I would, using C-c C-t, tu set things as DONE (adding the date and time)

But I could do that just for the text * issue 1, not for all the text below
this line.

I think I have to do a unique block of the two line, so when I set * issue
1 as DONE, automatically DONE, is set also on the line "this is the...."

Is it possible?

How can I set it?

Renato

Only headlines (i.e. lines starting with an asterisk) can have a todo
keyword and can be set as DONE.

Why exactly do you want to set the headline and its _description_ as
DONE? Marking a headline as done, also indicates (at least to me) the
body text after this as "done".

What is the advantage of this:

* DONE Headline
  DONE describing the headline
  DONE describing the headline
  DONE describing the headline

over this:

* DONE Headline
  describing the headline
  describing the headline
  describing the headline

?

I'm not sure to match Renato's expectations with the following, but
something that I'd love to have for some time now is that the
description of a DONE task should also be grayed, along with the title
(that already exists).

Best regards,
