This is expected. In the middle of the editing, you are breaking the drawer structure, transiently having something like :DRAWER: ... | :END: So, Org mode unfolds the drawer to avoid having a fold that cannot be unfolded by normal means. > Also any attempt to fold the drawer immediately afterwards (in same > elisp thread of execution) does nothing. This one is a bit tricky. The above unfolding does not happen immediately after the edit - we cannot reliably do it from inside after-change-functions. So, the unfolding of drawers is delayed until `post-command-hook' is evaluated. Since your attempt to fold the drawer happens _before_ `post-command-hook', your folding is effectively undone shortly after. To work around the problem, you can use `org-fold-core-ignore-fragility-checks' macro around your code modifying the drawer contents; as long as you know that you are not actually breaking the drawer structure. P.S. The above is all quite tricky and should be eventually simplified by using track-changes.el library (will be a part of Emacs 30). But not yet, and not until we drop Emacs 29 support. Wontfix.
