To add some more information, below is a sample file and here is a screenshot of the custom agenda generated from it: http://i.imgur.com/9eou6.png

As shown below, here is my custom agenda: ----- > (setq org-agenda-custom-commands > '(("w" "Agenda" > ((agenda "" ((org-agenda-ndays 7))) > > (todo "next" > ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Next Actions"))) > > (todo "proj" > ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Projects")) > (org-agenda-sorting-strategy > '(todo-state-down category-keep))))) ----- It's as if the face changes based both on whether it's scheduled or deadlined and what day it's showing up on. Any input on this, or is it normal? I guess I'd expect the todo keyword "done" to be green no matter what, but perhaps the headline is shown as red because the deadline is soon/tomorrow?
