I am trying to get a TODO tags view in my daily agenda just shows
the first TODO of a “Project” (a la the “next action” in GTD).
This allows me to have a TODO “tags” block in my custom agenda
that doesn’t run to several pages: I just see the next action for
each project, and, as each action is marked DONE, the next one
pops up.
I have *almost* managed to get this working by turning on org-
enforce-todo-dependencies, setting “ORDERED: t” as a property on
projects, and then using (setq org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks
'invisible).
However, this hides scheduled tasks from the agenda view if they
are also blocked (I want them to show up if they are scheduled
regardless). It seems that org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks is not
supported as a local setting on custom commands, so I can’t just
make blocked tasks visible in the agenda view and invisible in the
TODO tags query.
what do you mean by "is not supported as a local option"? Does
that mean you miss it in the customize menu for local option, or
does that mean you have added it using the "any variable" entry and
then it does not have the desired effect?
What I mean is setting it as an option in the custom commands does
not seem to work, e.g. see list line in:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
...
("d" "Daily Action List"
((agenda "" ((org-agenda-ndays 1)
(org-agenda-sorting-strategy
(quote ((agenda time-up priority-down tag-up) )))
(org-deadline-warning-days 7)))
(tags "TODO=\"STARTED\"+SCHEDULED=\"\"+DEADLINE=\"\""
((org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks 'invisible)))
...
The org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks on the generated "tags" view does
not get honoured. It *does* get honoured as a setting one level
"higher", i.e. as a local setting to the whole org-agenda-custom-
commands block, but that's not very useful here.
