indenting plan list items

indenting plan list items

[Rainer Stengele]

sorry if this is basic stuff I overlooked - I just cannot find it in the org manual.

Having

- item1
- item2
- item3
- ...

I often end up adding a line to the top like:


- list of simple todos:
- item1
- item2
- item3
- ...


Being with point on the first line I would then simply like to indent all
following lines until the empty line.
I cannot find an org command to do this but I think this worked some time ago!?
besides using emacs macros what could I use in org-mode?

Thanks,
Rainer

Hi Rainer,


it's true. The

   M-S left/right    (un/indent including children)

versus

   M left/right      (un/indent item on current line only)

behaviour is missing for plain lists. I believe it was in when I started
to use Org-mode. Is this feature gone for a reason?
Headlines still behave that way.

If it (still ?) was in, you could just add the first item and press

  M-S-right M-left

and that's it.



Sebastian

In that case it works, if you insert the the first item like this:


 - list of simple todos:
   - item1
   - item2
   - item3

and then re-align the entire list using `M-S left/right'



Regards,

   Sebastian
