------------------------------------------------------------------------
I recently installed Org 9.2.1 and encountered a few bugs / issues with
the new implementaion of Org tables:
1. columns do not correctly align when using a combined alignment and
width cookie
2. shrinking to a specified column width indicates continuation /
truncation where none exists
3. editing a cell narrower than its specified column width unnecessarily
expands the entire column.
Several "Invalid function: org-table-with-shrunk-field" errors also show
up in *Messages* during these operations. (it's a macro)
Recipes:
Emacs -Q
(org-version) -> "9.2.1"
1.
Create a new table:
| one |
| two is a longer cell |
Add a right alignment override and realign with C-c C-c:
| <r> |
| one |
| two is a longer cell |
Specify a column width:
| <r40> |
| one |
| two is a longer cell |
and shrink to size with C-c TAB:
| <r40> …|
| one …|
| two is a longer cell …|
The column is no longer right aligned.
2.
In the last table above, continuation / truncation / shrunk cell
characters (…) display even though the column is the full specified
width (40 char in this case) and no cell text is truncated. I expect
continuation to only show when text is actually truncated.
In the example above, something like this (mockup):
| <r40> |
| one |
| two is a longer cell |
And in the case of a narrower column, where a cell contains truncated /
hidden text, something like this (mockup):
| <r15> |
| one |
| two is a longer…|
3.
Create a new table and shrink to a specified column width with
C-u C-c TAB:
| <15> …|
| one …|
| two is a longer…|
Move point to the second cell and delete the "e" in "one":
| <15> |
| on |
| two is a longer cell |
The entire column expands, even though this action is not necessary to
perform the edit (annoying if the column contains other cells with text
longer than the window width).
