So you're kind of getting what you want, it's just that you want the current title to be left aligned/bold like a section? Can you explain what you mean by "don't want subsections to be promoted to sections"? As in with =#+options: num:t=, with: #+begin_src org * first ** second (export this and below) *** third #+end_src You would get: #+begin_src export 1.1 second 1.1.1 third #+end_src As in, does absolute position matter, or are you okay with: #+begin_src export 1 second 1.1 third #+end_src Not sure how to do what you want, but just thinking that more details might help others chime in about how to get what you want...
