Thanks for the pointer -- although experimenting with custom skip functions did not solve my problem, by reading Bernt's document I discovered speed keys :) It turned out the culprit was `org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks', which I had set to 'invisible soon after I started using Org-mode. Setting that to nil in the "Settings for the entire command set" of the block agenda view does what I want. And now that I know about custom skip functions, I can move stuck projects to their own section in the project list. ~ Jan _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
