Hi Eric,
thanks for your answer. I guess drawers in general are the solution to
my problems because then I can associate text to a specific headline. I
introduced a DESCRIPTION drawer that includes the description of my
problem/task and I log the solution or outcome into the LOGBOOK drawer
when setting the state to DONE. The drawer names are of course
arbitrary. I also tried to use a single LOGBOOK drawer but Org mode
always adds notes at the top in the respective drawer. I guess this is
fine in general but not expected behavior in this setting, that's why I
use two of them.
Thanks,
Dominik
