[Orgmode] Re: Projects+Next Actions view

2010-10-01 Thread Marcelo de Moraes Serpa
Thanks Matt!

However, this seems to show all the TODO items below a PROJECT item,
including the DONE ones. What I had in mind was to show only the first
child. Is it possible?

Thanks,

Marcelo.

 like this is very useful. It also shows any orphan tasks (tasks that
 don't belong to a project), so you have a nice overview of what you
 can do based on your own input.

 With org, I have created a Projects view, a tags agenda filter
 filtering for non-todo items. I could use follow mode, which is quite
 useful, but doesn't give the same uncluttered view Things does with
 its next actions view. I was wondering if it would be possible, even
 if more elisp would be needed, to create a view like this?

 E.x:

 * Keep the cat alive :PROJECT:HOME:
  ** TODO Feed the cat
   ...

 * Feature 2 :PROJECT:FEATURE:
 ** TODO Run the script
  ...


 You could use a sparse tree view:

 (add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands
             '(x PROJECT+N/A tags-tree PROJECT|TODO=\TODO\
               ((org-show-siblings nil)
                (org-show-entry-below nil

 Best,
 Matt

Remember, you can set CATEGORY property which is displayed in the
leftmost column of an agenda view. I set it in projects.org file so I
don't have to use :PROJECT: tag.

 (add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands
             '(x PROJECT+N/A tags-tree PROJECT|TODO=\TODO\
               ((org-show-siblings nil)
                (org-show-entry-below nil

 However, this seems to show all the TODO items below a PROJECT item,
 including the DONE ones. What I had in mind was to show only the first
 child. Is it possible?

So use the ORDERED property, or properly nest action and enforce todo
dependencies info:(org)TODO dependencies. Actions that cannot be taken
right know because they depend on other actions will be displayed in
grey font on an agenda. If, however, they are featured this way there
probably is a way to hide them completely.
