Hi folks, I'm using Org 8.0.3 and Emacs 24.3.1.
I noticed with interest this note in the Org 8.0 release notes: "When a list item has a checkbox, inserting a new item uses a checkbox too." I'm finding, however, that Org will in many cases insert a new checkbox even if the current item has none. Specifically, invoking org-insert-heading on the second or subsequent lines of a multi-line item will create a new checkbox item every time, whether the current item has a checkbox or not. To illustrate: 1. org-insert-heading invoked here creates a new plain item 2. org-insert-heading invoked on this second item does the same 3. However, org-insert-heading, invoked on the SECOND line of this creates a following checkbox item: 4. [ ] However, invoking org-insert-heading on the first line of a multi-line item creates new items of the correct type, checkbox or not. So it seems like the first line is determinative. May I ask if anybody else is seeing this behavior? Is it as designed? Regards, Tom Davey -- Tom Davey t...@tomdavey.com New York NY USA
