I have this example org file and started with "emacs -Q": ---8<--- * Headline :CLOCK: CLOCK: [2022-04-18 Mo 11:17]--[2022-04-18 Mo 11:17] => 0:00 :END: :PROPERTIES: :CREATED: [2022-04-18 Mo 11:17] :END:
- Some text --->8--- When I try to set a property "C-c C-x p" or "M-x org-set-property", this message is displayed: >Malformed drawer at 93, repair? (y or n) y Answering yes, inserts an empty drawer at the beginning of the entry, and then continues to query the property name and value. Moving the :PROPERTIES: drawer to the beginning fixes this issue and a new property is inserted without any complaints. ---8<--- * Headline :PROPERTIES: :CREATED: [2022-04-18 Mo 11:17] :END: :CLOCK: CLOCK: [2022-04-18 Mo 11:17]--[2022-04-18 Mo 11:17] => 0:00 :END: - Some text --->8--- I would expect, that the order of drawers doesn't matter.
