Following up on my question about transmitting tags over to MobileOrg -- the question being how to make sure MobileOrg knows about the existing tags, so that it's possible to edit tagged nodes without breaking the tags. I found a reference to a function, org-global-tags-completion-table, that would collect all of the tags currently being used. So, as an experiment, I made a small change to org-mobile.el [1]. And, magically, in index.org, now I get: #+TAGS: Bug FarShore Hadron Hard Lament lily Lilypond......... And on my tablet, editing a node shows the correct tags (no more #+DRAWERS::) and, tapping on a tag brings up a full, correct list of tags. Great! IMO, what a typical user would expect. Obviously this is a hack, and I am 1/ not sophisticated enough with lisp and 2/ not familiar enough with the orgmode codebase to implement a real solution. I guess it would be something like a customization variable to determine whether or not to concatenate the tag completion table onto org-tag-alist-for-agenda, and then a conditional in the spot that I changed. If no objection, I'll add a feature request (if I don't find an existing one). hjh [1] Diff vs. release_7.8.11 diff --git a/lisp/org-mobile.el b/lisp/org-mobile.el index 946e821..5644a05 100644 --- a/lisp/org-mobile.el +++ b/lisp/org-mobile.el @@ -430,7 +430,8 @@ agenda view showing the flagged items."
