Hello,

I'm starting to sue (wow, bad typo, should read "use" of course) 
org-capture instead of org-remember, as probably a lot of other users do :)

Using an org-capture template [1], I end up with the following:

=============================================
* TODO Proper Formatting
   :CLOCK:
   CLOCK: [2010-06-29 Tue 16:33]
   :END:
:PROPERTIES:
:Created: [2010-06-29 Tue 16:33]
:END:
=============================================

What I would like to see is this:

=============================================
* TODO Proper Formatting
   :CLOCK:
   CLOCK: [2010-06-29 Tue 16:33]
   :END:
   :PROPERTIES:
   :Created: [2010-06-29 Tue 16:33]
   :END:
=============================================

that is, I'd love to see the :PROPERTIES: indented appropriately for the 
corresponding headline level.  Is this possible, and if so, how?

M-x org-version <Ret> yields:

Org-mode version 6.36trans (release_6.36.457.g025a9)

Thanks and Cheers
Markus

[1] My org-capture template:

(setq org-capture-templates
       '(("t" "Task" entry (file "h:/org/refile.org")
	 "* TODO %^{Todo} \n:PROPERTIES:\n:Created: %U\n:END:\n\n%?"
	 :clock-in :clock-resume)))

         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

An there's an error in the template.  It should read

 :clock-in t :clock-resume t

D'uh ...  Of course.  Thanks for pointing this out, David!

No, adding a space between "\n" and ":PROPERTIES:", ":Created", and 
":END:" does just that, it adds a space, but does NOT yield the proper 
indent.  This becomes more obvious when you refile a capture note to a 
second-level headline.

Any other ideas/suggestions?

Thanks
Markus

I've suggested a more generic approach to specify properties in capture
templates.  Have a look at the thread starting with the message
<877hlqetr8.fsf@thinkpad.tsdh.de>.

Of course, that's only a suggestion and nothing of that is
implemented... ;-)

Bye,
Tassilo

Ah, thank you.  I skimmed the thread earlier but didn't catch 
everything.  Let's keep our fingers crossed that your suggestions (or a 
variation thereof) will be implemented; IIRC, Carsten mentioned 
something along these lines.

Thanks
Markus
