When I get lost among the hierarchical headings in Org mode
When I’m editing my notes in Org mode, I may get lost among the hierarchical headings. Then I use the follow measures to localize my position, check its surrounding environment and get an overview.
- Use
org-previous-visible-heading
(bound toC-c C-p
) to go to the heading of the current contents. - Use
org-fold-hide-sublevels
to hides all sublevel contents including all those headings on a same level with the current one, whileorg-fold-hide-subtree
only hide the contents of the current heading. In this way, I can quickly view the list of all same level headings. - Show headings to a certain level
n
in the whole buffer:C-<n> S-tab
- Show subheadings to a certain level
n
within the current heading:C-<n> C-c tab
