Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.
If `org-insert-heading-respect-content' is set to t Orgmode refuses to
insert a new headline above the first headline.
- create a new buffer called *test* (C-x b *test* RET)
- turn on org-mode (M-x org-mode RET)
- call `org-insert-heading-respect-content'
*Messages*

This is slightly annoying as I cannot insert a headlines in a brand
new orgfile with M-Ret when the customization variable
`org-insert-heading-respect-content' is set to t.

Memnon Anon gegendosenflei...@googlemail.com writes: Hi! I am still working on making orgmode a more usefull tool for me :), how do you guys handle this problem: I schedule and reschedule tasks pretty often. (Thats why I, too, think a history of scheduling would be a nice addition to have.). Whenever a task comes up, I schedule it for some day in the future and handle it when it appears in my agenda. However, I try to keep a balance of several aspects in my life, mainly - duties like vacuum the flat - studium everything related to work at university - fun like reading a book, watching a dvd etc. and - sports: get in shape ;) Okay, as I frequently schedule and reschedule, I work from my agenda to keep these aspects of my life in a certain balance I predefined: studium: at least 6 hours a day, fun (I really need to make some place for it) at least 1 hour a day etc. So, as I added Efforts and Tags to each item, it would be very convenient to keep scheduling, then filter the agenda for certain aspects to get a feeling, if I keep my personal balance up on this specific day. However, using ColumnView on a filtered agenda, say show me only my 'duties', does not summarize the filtered agenda items, but everything, id est even everything that is hidden. I understand this is due to how filtering and columnview works, but Has anyone an idea/workflow how I can work on this? I tried to lock myself up into fixed times, repeating items etc. but I am not that kind of person: A new day, I want to know whats up, but I also want to stay free enough to shape things according to my (day) taste. I rather do a daily (each morning) and a weekly review and reschedule accordingly. I am a student, so I (still) have the possibility to do so; and I would like to keep it that way, but nevertheless want to have an eye on the general tendency, the balance of the several aspects I want to keep. I hope this is clear enough, Thanks for any suggestions! Hi Memnon, Yes, column view does not update its summaries based on filtering. But perhaps you could create a custom agenda block that shows separate agendas for each tag (duties, studium, etc.).

[Orgmode] Blorgit Adding PDF export
Eric,
Also, rather than using a shell script, would it be possible to use the
built in `org-export-as-pdf' function. This may obviate the need for a
shell script at all. In this case you probably wouldn't need to remove
the leading . in the file names, and if you did, it could be done in
elisp right around export with the `rename-file' function.
Regarding the addition of an extra link in order to get the PDF export, I took
your remarks into account and here's what I finally went to.
First, add the .pdf link to the page:

Re: [Orgmode] latex export and beamer columns
Hi Eric,
I am now getting interested in beamer support. I think this is
interesting enough to implement special support for making beamer
slides.
Can I ask you to think about it in general terms, what would be useful
to have?
One of the problems with your most recent solution for the columns
problem is that the document no longer exports really well to a normal
LaTeX document - or is this no issue because beamer has its own way to
produce handouts, so that the LaTeX export of a document intended for
beamer is not so interesting?
But also in a broader sense: What would be useful? I think making
slides in this way, through org, could be extremely fast and useful.

Anything missing in Org that we should implement to support this

Actually, going through the set of lectures I am currently preparing,
I am finding that there is one thing missing that I haven't needed
before in latex export: the ability to centre a figure without having
to use a float environment.
Back in September, early October, there was a thread about image
placement in latex export:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/18174/
There was a number of use cases discussed: inline placement versus
float placement. There is one use case missing, one that is
particularly useful for presentations, although not often necessary
for articles say, namely a figure centred on a line without a caption
and without floating. This seemed to be present at some point in the
past but has disappeared, unless I have misunderstood the state of
play...
Basically, I would like to do something like:
,

| [[file:images/double-pipe-heat-exchanger.png]]

`
and have that figure centred on the line instead of left aligned as it
would currently appear.
If I add a #+label: the image does appear centred but as this is done
by using a latex figure environment, a Figure: caption (empty) is
added which isn't particularly useful in this case!
There *is* a solution, but it's a bit messy, e.g.:
,
|
| \hfill
| #+attr_latex: width=0.6\textwidth
| [[file:images/double-pipe-heat-exchanger.png]]
| \hspace*{\fill} \\
|
`
By the way, an \hfill at the end is not sufficient to centre the
image.
I have no solution to propose for incorporating something like this
into org-mode other than possibly making use of a placement=centre
(oops, center if you prefer american spelling) option on attr_latex
which would put the includegraphics within a \centerline or \centering
environment.

[Orgmode] org-export-as-pdf Deleting the pdf file
Hi,
When working with LaTeX files (and now with org files as well), we are used to
open the resulting PDF files with Sumatra PDF viewer. It is very handy because
it does not lock the file (like Adobe Reader) and thus enables us to recompile
it while it is still open. It is then refreshed automatically at the end of
the compilation.
While using the org-export-as-pdf function, we are not able to get the same
behavior as the function deletes the pdf file before the compilation. The
deletion fails because the pdf file is opened in the viewer.
Would it be possible to avoid deleting the pdf file before compilation?

[Orgmode] Latex export to A4
As I understand it, orgmode defaults to A4, but I seem to be exporting to PDF via Latex in letter. And I have never had a problem before, but I am now exporting to PDF and when viewed the bottom of the page is cut off. Its strange because usually the viewer adjusts to the page size, but Acrobat is identifying the page as being letter size but only showing an A4 window of the text. The last line is listed in the hyperlinks, but not viewable.

Instead, it appears as if the only heading is Bad file encoding and the body text is Unable to detect file encoding, please re-save this file using the proper encoding. At first I thought it was because I've got things like the pounds-sterling, t-with-a-comma, a-with-breve, and i-with-circumflex characters in my text (some of which contains Romanian, hence the especially odd t-with-a-comma). But I'm pretty sure I've expunged those characters from my files, and anyway, the agendas.org file should only contain the characters that my original org files contain. So, I'm happy enough to use the proper encoding, but I don't know what that is, and I don't save the adgendas.org file myself: org-mobile- push must do that on my behalf.

The TODO changes to STARTED when I clock this task in, which I do when I'm working on my preparation. I could have a sub-task for preparation and clock this, but in the end, this doesn't really matter too much to me. Yes mine does too - but then I just move it back to no TODO keyword and keep the clock running. I don't normally clock in 'events', I clock in todo tasks - so if there's something to do to prepare for the event I would normally stick that in another task and clock that instead. Bernt, just curious, how do you bill for the time you spent at an event? My goal here is to try to catch all the time I spend on this workshop project'' (it's professional development so I have to bill all the time I spend on it) in my time table, that's why I'm clocking it. This should include preparation and the time I actually spend at the work shop. If I followed your example, I'd create a level-3 task (presumably) called ``Preparation'' and clock that, and the time spend on this task will show up in my time table. But what about the actual work shop? Say you were in the same situation, how would you go about this? Maybe a hidden org-mode gem that I haven't discovered yet? Hi Marcus Sorry if this reply is a bit late ... I just noticed your workshop is _today_.

This blocks off a time in my calendar on the days of the event so I know I'm busy then.

I would leave the clock on the Day entries and keep the detail under it. I tend to use remember tasks for miscellaneous unplanned tasks I need to do - like respond to this email - and clock it in when I start work on it (which may be the same time I create the task or it may not). If I'm clocking a Day 1 type task then I'll use remember mode to record new items and file under the current running clock.

I'd also drop the TODO since it's scheduled for a block of time and when the time is gone it's done - whether you mark it DONE or not. Thanks for your reply, Bernt. The TODO changes to STARTED when I clock this task in, which I do when I'm working on my preparation. I could have a sub-task for preparation and clock this, but in the end, this doesn't really matter too much to me. Yes mine does too - but then I just move it back to no TODO keyword and keep the clock running. I don't normally clock in 'events', I clock in todo tasks - so if there's something to do to prepare for the event I would normally stick that in another task and clock that instead. Bernt, just curious, how do you bill for the time you spent at an event? My goal here is to try to catch all the time I spend on this workshop project'' (it's professional development so I have to bill all the time I spend on it) in my time table, that's why I'm clocking it. This should include preparation and the time I actually spend at the work shop. If I followed your example, I'd create a level-3 task (presumably) called ``Preparation'' and clock that, and the time spend on this task will show up in my time table. But what about the actual work shop? Say you were in the same situation, how would you go about this? Maybe a hidden org-mode gem that I haven't discovered yet? Hi Marcus Sorry if this reply is a bit late ... I just noticed your workshop is _today_. I would probably create a task something like this ,[ diary.org ] | ** Project Management Workshop 09:00-16:30 |2009-11-19 Thu--2009-11-20 Fri |[2009-11-19 Thu 07:57] ` to record the actual booked event with time. This blocks off a time in my calendar on the days of the event so I know I'm busy then.

[Orgmode] [babel] editing LaTeX source code blocks
Aloha all, It is very convenient in org-babel to open a new buffer on a source code block with C-c ' and edit in that buffer using the appropriate Emacs major/minor modes. Currently, the LaTeX source code buffer doesn't have access to labels defined in other source code blocks. Outside of org-babel, when editing multi-file documents, reftex (or auctex, I'm not sure which) scans all the files referenced in the master file for labels and makes these available when adding a cross reference. It would be nice if C-c ' on a LaTeX source code block did something similar, perhaps by finding LaTeX source code blocks with a :tangle header argument and evaluating the noweb references to find label definitions. If it is the case that the Org-mode file contains more than one LaTeX source code block with a :tangle header argument, then perhaps the user could be given a choice of which one to search for label definitions. There are easy workarounds for this, so it isn't a big deal. It would be deluxe to leverage the full power of reftex while editing org-babel LaTeX source code blocks, though.

Hi Eric,

Excellent!
Can I ask you to think about it in general terms, what would be useful
to have?
I've been using org-mode for my presentations for a few months now and
intensively the past week or so for a set of lectures (70+ slides) I
have to give starting tomorrow (yikes! had better get them
finished...!). It's working remarkably well.
Beamer has many many features and I think it would violate the ethos
of org-mode if we attempted to support the majority of them. Although
I can suggest a number of features I think would be nice to support,
I'm sure others will have a different subset they think is
critical... however, I will give it a go:
1. being able to easily specify columns. I've proposed a solution
works well for me but it is a bit clumsy and does impose a meaning
on the 3rd and 4th level headings. This might conflict with other
potential uses for these headings obviously (cf. next point). Also,
please see my response to your comment on the impact of this on
normal latex export below. The nice thing about using headings to
indicate columns is the ease with which the columns can be
re-ordered.
2. it would be nice to support the block environment in beamer. The
obvious way would be to use 3rd level headings to indicate blocks.
In my case, I use these less frequently than columns which is why I
chose to use 3rd level headings to indicate columns. However, a
solution that catered for both would be great.
one solution I am playing with, given that I often have blocks
within columns, is to use the 5th level headings for block
headings:
--8---cut here---start-8---
(\\section{%s} . \\section*{%s})
(\\begin{frame}\\frametitle{%s} \\end{frame}
\\begin{frame}\\frametitle{%s} \\end{frame})
(\\begin{columns} \% %s \\end{columns}
\\begin{columns} \% %s \\end{columns})
(\\begin{column}{%s\\textwidth} \\end{column}
\\begin{column}{%s\\textwidth} \\end{column})
(\\begin{block}{%s} \\end{block}
\\begin{block}{%s} \\end{block})
--8---cut here---end---8---
For example, the following would generate a block within a full
width column on the slide:
--8---cut here---start-8---
*** Another slide
* columns
*** 1.0
* My proposition
- work better
- work faster
- have a life
--8---cut here---end---8---
Although clumsy, it works! (set H:5 of course)
3. support for animation, typically through the special N tags on
items and blocks (and more generally on most latex environments),
would be nice. This can be used to selectively display different
parts of a slide. One way to implement this, at least for itemized
lists, would be through a new bullet point syntax, as in:
1- item to display from first virtual slide onwards
2-3 display on second and third views of the slide
-4 display up to 4th view
which would translate to
\begin{itemize}
\item1- item to display from first virtual slide onwards
\item2-3 display on second and third views of the slide
\item-4 display up to 4th view
\end{itemize}
I have no idea how hard it would be to incorporate this into the
current list handling however... although I can imagine it could be
quite difficult.
4. as already mentioned in another email, passing arguments to the
frame environment would also be quite useful. This could be done
with an attribute type of framework as done for figures and
tables. I don't use many options to frame but I do find the need
to use [shrink=20] or similar often (because my default font
setting for beamer is bigger and so slides with more than a few
bullet points or equations quickly overflow the slide).
5. finally, I use tikz a great deal in my presentations. However,
this is probably best handled by the normal embedded latex features
already present.
Again, this list is based on the features I find I use in beamer and
others will have other requirements unfortunately.
One of the problems with your most recent solution for the columns
problem is that the document no longer exports really well to a normal
LaTeX document - or is this no issue because beamer has its own way to
produce handouts, so that the LaTeX export of a document intended for
beamer is not so interesting?
Yes, beamer provides a very nice handout mode (option handout to the
beamer document class).
But also in a broader sense: What would be useful? I think making
slides in this way, through org, could be extremely fast and useful.
It is indeed fast and very useful. It's made preparing my slides much

Re: [Orgmode] latex export and beamer columns
Eric listed all (or almost all) requirements for exporting Beamer.
Some of the mI encountered a few days ago. I decided to export the
lists into latex and then converting by hand the rest of the
presentation.
I am also very happy that Beamer is becoming an official directive
of org-mode.
Carsten converted us to org-mode and we converted him to Beamer!
