Setting of outline levels for custom headings |
Date: |
Thu, 22 Jun 2023 16:18:59 +0000 |
I am using outline-minor-mode and have changed outline-regexp,
outline-heading-alist.
Have seen that for some major modes (e.g. emacs-lisp-mode), with
outline-minor-mode-highlight
set to 'override nil), one has to call (setq-local outline-level
'outline-level) for the
heading faces to take effect.
But without the call to outline-minor-mode-highlight, the headings defined by
outline-regexp
still get recognised, but not the outline levels.
It is not evident at this point, which major modes require a call to
(setq-local outline-level 'outline-level).
There is not enough information in the documentation to get a custom headings
setup operational.
Furthermore, although a call to (setq-local outline-level 'outline-level)
solved the problem,
a better approach would be for outline-minor-mode to automatically detect
whether a custom heading
was specified, and thus act accordingly. It would be quite a struggle for
people to perceive the
need to call (setq-local outline-level 'outline-level), as the change is only
needed for certain
major modes only.

Yes, you need to set the variables outline-regexp, outline-heading-alist,
and outline-level before enabling outline-minor-mode.
Since you have a working solution now, I'm closing this request.
