outline-up-heading ignoring hidden levels of headings

outline-up-heading ignoring hidden levels of headings

[Karl Voit]

Hi!

Since I recently upgraded my Org-mode maint branch to 8.3.4
(release_8.3.4-1384-gc61ee8)[1], one behavior changed to a worse one.

Before:

Given an Org-mode buffer whose headings are all collapsed. When I
open a task (heading) from my agenda, the corresponding heading *and
all of its "upstream" headings* are shown as well. This way, I could
easily use C-c C-u (outline-up-heading) to go to the corresponding
father heading.

Current behavior:

Jumping to a collapsed sub-tree results in the target heading shown
but *not the "upstream headings"*. When I use C-c C-u to go to the
upper heading, I end up corresponding top heading, ignoring all the
level of headings in between. To get to a direct father heading, I
have to make Org-mode show all headings of the buffer and then, C-c
C-u is able to jump one level up.

Question:

How can I get back to the previous behavior?

Thanks!


[1] Why isn't the major version changed to 9?

Possibly you can configure variable

    org-show-context-detail

to meet your needs.

Also consider command `org-reveal' (C-c C-r by default, I guess) to reveal
more context at a location in an orgmode buffer.

Exactly.

The default setting of this changed with Emacs 25.2 according to its
documentation.

Thanks for the pointer!

Good point.

However, I prefer having the expanded view (lineage) in the first
place.
