  • What do you mean by *in* an org mode drawer? I thought I understood (more or less): in the drawer :FOO:\nbar\n:END:\nwhere the newlines are as indicated, I thought that if point was anywhere in that string (e.g somewhere on bar), I would be in the drawer - but your function in the answer says no in that case. So please clarify what you mean by being in the drawer. Commented Aug 10 at 2:35
  • Your understanding is correct; I only tested my function with a property drawer, in which case my function does work for properties inside the property drawer. Sorry! Commented Aug 11 at 18:27
