Org-Mode Sub-Items Not Indented Consistently in Variable Pitch Mode

[stevemolitor]

With org-indent-mode on and when using variable-pitch-mode, sub headings and sub-lists are not indented consistently. Here is a gif using ef-winter:

Note that "text" and "* Three" are not indented to the same level for example. Here is the same file using modus-vivendi:

Note that everything lines up in vivendi, but not in ef-winter.

I tried with ef-themes-variable-pitch-ui set to t and nil, same effect.

Thanks for the great themes btw!

Thank you @stevemolitor!

I just pushed the change:

  commit c68c71957619c140b8115a1a814f4d764b9246ee
  Author: Protesilaos Stavrou <info@protesilaos.com>
  Date:   Thu Aug 25 22:25:10 2022 +0300
  
      Make 'org-indent' always monospaced
      
      This is essential for 'org-indent-mode' to align entries correctly.
      
      Thanks to Steve Molitor for reporting the issue 9 over at the GitHub
      mirror: <https://github.com/protesilaos/ef-themes/issues/9>.  Steven
      tested a sample file with 'modus-vivendi' and got the desired results.
      It reminded me how I handle this face with the 'modus-themes'.

Are you using the package from GNU ELPA? I plan to release version 0.4.0 in the coming days. Maybe the beginning of next week. This commit will be part of that version.

[stevemolitor]

@protesilaos Wow that was quick! No I cloned the repo. Will it be available via straight eventually?

I can confirm it works great now, everything is all lined up:

Thanks a bunch!

[protesilaos]

Yes, it is available right now if you are using straight.

Thanks a bunch!

You are welcome!

Closing this now.

with this change (or maybe surfaces by nix-community/emacs-overlay moving to LUCID build by default?) the hidden stars are being rendered with the default type's foreground -- if i reverse the inherited faces so that (,c :inherit (org-hide fixed-pitch)) it behaves properly:

[protesilaos]

Hi @rrix and thanks for reporting this! Does your fixed-pitch face have an explicit foreground? What does the Help buffer say when you do M-x describe-face and search for fixed-pitch?

[rrix]

nah, it just inherits default:

Defined in ‘faces.el’.


           Family: Vulf Mono
          Foundry: unspecified
            Width: unspecified

default:

@rrix Inheriting the default is a problem here because that means it takes the default foreground as well. For reference, this is fixed-pitch in an emacs -Q session:

Face: fixed-pitch (sample) (customize this face)

Documentation:
The basic fixed-pitch face.

Defined in ‘faces.el’.


           Family: Monospace
          Foundry: unspecified
            Width: unspecified
           Height: unspecified
           Weight: unspecified
            Slant: unspecified
       Foreground: unspecified
DistantForeground: unspecified
       Background: unspecified
        Underline: unspecified
         Overline: unspecified
   Strike-through: unspecified
              Box: unspecified
          Inverse: unspecified
          Stipple: unspecified
             Font: unspecified
          Fontset: unspecified
           Extend: unspecified
          Inherit: unspecified

When an attribute's value is unspecified it is taken from the closest relevant context, ultimately falling back to default.

Try to decouple fixed-pitch from default by not inheriting the latter. Simply specify the :family of fixed-pitch and the rest will be done automatically.

circling back: this was the solution, thanks :)
