[O] Filter by tags issues
I'm having an annoying issue with filter by tag. I filter everything that has @computer, process one item and send it to the archive file; as soon as I archive it, the next item on the list pops up - this item might be a @home item. How do I stop this from happening? Thanks.
[O] Tag filter inheritence
When I filter by tag (C-c / m) for, say, @internet, the tag for the parent also shows up (which might have a different tag, say, @errands). Is there any way to see _only_ tags that have @internet and filter out tags inherited from the parent?

[O] Adding items in table
I have a table and would like to add all costs (in $) in column 3 as a total. Wondering how do I do that. I have done =vsum($2..$9) - but this hangs my org file and I have to kill it with the -9 switch. Thanks.

Re: [O] Org indent mode
Got it. Thanks. On Sat, Mar 1, 2014 at 3:46 PM, Josiah Schwab jsch...@gmail.com wrote: Yes. We are clearly talking past each other. You need to set the org-hide text style (or face) so that it is the same color as your background. Then the stars will appear invisible. This is explained in the section of the docs I linked to: The leading stars are not truly replaced by whitespace, they are only fontified with the face org-hide that uses the background color as font color. If you are not using either white or black background, you may have to customize this face to get the wanted effect. Here's one way you might do that. Do M-x apropos and then search for org-hide. Click org-hide and then click customize this face. Then set the foreground color to be the same as your background color. Hope that helps.

If I create a project with ** project name, is there any way to create a sub-directory at *** level in ~/projects/project name and create txt files in that directory - all from within org? Thanks.
[O] Killing the tag search window
I use C-c a m to search tags. How do I close this window when I'm done? At the moment, I'm using C-x k to kill this window, C-c o to jump to my org file and then C-x 1 make the window full screen. Is there any other way to close the tags window? Thanks.
Re: [O] Killing the tag search window
Thanks! That's a huge productivity gain for me. Although, I don't see q buries it in the buffer.

[O] Tasks started tag
I have the following line in my .emacs for tasks which I invoke with C-c C-t.

It could be that you have a custom face set that depends on modeline? Thanks, I have changed modeline to mode-line and it's now working fine.

Re: [O] Word wrap in org-mode

When I copy and paste long texts, it goes across the window. Alt-q doesn't do word wrap. Maybe I am misunderstanding, but M-q works for me and is bound to `(fill-paragraph)', perhaps yours is bound to something else? Press: C-h k M-q to find out. This is what I get: It is bound to M-q. (fill-paragraph optional JUSTIFY REGION) Should it work? Thanks.

[O] Windows XP: date and time-stamp for DONE items not showing-up
I'm new to orgmode and emacs. I have downloaded emacs 23.3 for XP and trying to use orgmode that comes bundled with this version of emacs. I'm following this tutorial: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/orgtutorial_dto.html When I mark a project as Done it doesn't show the CLOSED and date and time-stamp as described in the tutorial. It just puts the DONE in front of the task. My _emacs file is under the C:\Documents and Settings\user_name directory and it only has the following: (require 'org-install) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '(\\.org$ . org-mode)) (define-key global-map \C-cl 'org-store-link) (define-key global-map \C-ca 'org-agenda) (setq org-log-done t) I have put emacs under C:\ drive and all the org files are under the C:\emacs-23.3-bin-i386\emacs-23.3\lisp\org directory. Could someone please tell me how to get the CLOSED and time and date stamp for items that are marked as done? Thanks.
