Subject: 25.1; after-string of overlay may not be displayed
Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2017 15:19:06 +0900

Evaluating the form below, I expect to see 4 <BeforeAfter>.
It displays 3 <Before> and 1 <BeforeAfter>.
If before-string is not specified, 4 <After> are displayed.

(dotimes (i 4)
  (let ((p (point)) ol)
    (insert "<HIDDEN>\n")
    (setq ol (make-overlay (1+ p) (- (point) 2)))
    (cond ((= i 0) (overlay-put ol 'display ""))
          ((= i 1) (overlay-put ol 'invisible t))
          ((= i 2) (put-text-property (1+ p) (- (point) 2) 'display ""))
          ((= i 3) (put-text-property (1+ p) (- (point) 2) 'invisible t)))
    (overlay-put ol 'before-string "Before")
    (overlay-put ol 'after-string  "After")
    (overlay-put ol 'evaporate t)))

I don't see any bug here.  You are making text disappear using
different methods, and each one has its implications wrt before- and
after-string.

I don't understand why the existence of before-string affects
whether after-string is displayed or not.
