Re: Has VISIBILITY property become case-sensitive?

[Richard Stanton]

Here’ s a very simple org file that exhibits the behavior I describe

-----------------

#+STARTUP: overview

* Hidden

- This should not initially appear

- Nor this

* Visible

:PROPERTIES:

:VISIBILITY: content

:END:

- This should appear

- And this

———————

Change the case of the word “VISIBILILTY” and the file's behavior on first loading changes.

When I load this file using emacs -Q (which loads org 9.6.15), both sections appear folded regardless of the case of “visibility”…! Is there some configuration variable I need to set?

My org file has the header line

One section contains the properties drawer

:PROPERTIES:
:Visibility: content
:END:

This used to show the contents of that subtree on first loading the file, but it no longer does. Experimentation shows that it works if I change “Visibility” to “VISIBILITY”. Is it a deliberate change to require upper case here? By the way, this is using org version 9.7pre

I am unable to reproduce.
Please provide more details, preferably starting from emacs -Q.
