Those two methods result in expanded properties, yes. However, I obviously was not precise enough to explain my requirement which is more complicated than "showeverything". I would like to have all headings folded when I open the file (as it is now). Then I navigate to a heading of a person by using text search or arrow keys and TAB (to expand hierarchies). On the heading of the "target" person, I want TAB to expand also the properties drawer, not only the content of the heading with properties collapsed. Example: I start with contacts.org like this: * job * family I go to "job" and expand using TAB: * job * Bob * Peter * Susan * family After that, I navigate to "Peter" and press TAB once again to expand the heading of Peter *and* its property drawer all together (only for "Peter"): * job * Bob * Peter :PROPERTIES: :EMAIL: pe...@example.com :COMPANY: Acme :ADDRESS: Hiscity, hisstreet 42 :END: - met him at conference XY in 2009 - works in the field of foobar * Susan * family The desired difference to my current situation is, that I do not have to navigate on the PROPERTY line and press TAB to open the drawer for email, company name, address, and so forth. Usual behavior: PROPERTY drawer stays collapsed when its corresponding heading gets expanded. My wish: PROPERTY drawer gets collapsed when its corresponding heading gets expanded. I know that this is a very specific requirement and it spares me only one positioning effort followed by TAB. However, for contacts it would eliminate one annoyance for my work flow :-) Thanks for your comments, thoughts, tipps! -- mail|git|SVN|photos|postings|SMS|phonecalls|RSS|CSV|XML to Org-mode: > get Memacs from https://github.com/novoid/Memacs < https://github.com/novoid/extract_pdf_annotations_to_orgmode + more on github
