Tab through headings without cycling through showall in org-mode

Question

In org mode in Doom Emacs, i am used, that i am just cycling through the next heading and close it right after that.

But in vanilla Emacs, I am cycling through three stages (for whatever reason). How can i avoid this in vanilla Emacs?

Or is there a "close only the heading of this subtree" function?

For example, let the file be:

* test1
** test2
   hello

In Doom Emacs, it shows

* test1 ...

pressing tab shows

* test1
**test2...

pressing tab should now close it again:

* test1...

instead in vanilla Emacs it shows

* test1
** test2
   hello

This is not a solution to your problem but rather a referral to one, which I suspect would do what you want. If the non-vanilla version of Emacs you used to use before was Doom Emacs, then, in Doom Emacs, the behaviour of the org-cycle bound to TAB has been changed by adding a hook called +org-cycle-only-current-subtree-h to org-tab-first-hook. This function is located in https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs/blob/master/modules/lang/org/autoload/org.el You can just copy paste it from there.

The hook is applied as in the following code snippet from Doom Emacs, I have removed a few irrelevant things from it:

 (add-hook 'org-tab-first-hook
           ;; Only fold the current tree, rather than recursively
            #'+org-cycle-only-current-subtree-h)
         

Please NOTE, I haven't tested this in any way!
