feature related to elided text while searching

[John J Foerch]

Hi,

Suppose I am viewing an org-mode file, with a large tree of headings and
subheadings, all collapsed.  I search for some text from the top of the file,
and when the search completes, point is now in one of the subheadings.  If
this subheading has sibling nodes after it, those headings are elided with
`...'.  This is the behavior I would like to change.  I would like sibling
headings to be shown collapsed, rather than completely elided.

Can anyone tell me how I might accomplish this?  What part of org-mode source
code should I study to make this happen?

Thank you,

John Foerch

This is something on my wish list.  What would be needed to accomplish 
this
is a new hook in isearch.el which runs late enough.  Currently there is 
no such hook.

What you can do is run org-reveal `C-c C-r' after the search finishes,
this may at least partially fix the problem?  To show all siblings,
you will actually need C-u C-c C-r

Thank you.  I'll look into that.
