I think you can use `org-match-sparse-tree'. It supports the general match syntax. See 11.3.3 Matching tags and properties section for the match syntax. > If this is the right way and the maintainer wants me to submit a patch, I > would include these functions to get a new optional for keep-previous, > since they could all plausibly be used for the same thing that > org-check-before-date was: > * org-show-todo-tree > * org-check-deadlines > * org-check-before-date > * org-check-after-date > * org-check-dates-range I think that it does make sense to support KEEP-PREVIOUS in these functions. `org-occur' does support it and there is no reason not to allow the same toggle in the listed functions. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
