[O] Filter weekly/daily agenda by tag
Hello, this is my first post on the mailing list and i am not quite sure if i do everything right. If i screw something up, please let me know, so i can fix it and do it right next time. To the problem I'm facing: My setup: I have a single org file with appointments as sub trees. Each appointment has an active timestamp assigned to it, so it appears in the weekly agenda view. It also has one or more tags assigned to it. The agenda view i want to create: I would like to have a weekly agenda view filtered by the tags assigned to the events. Now, i searched the org-mode list archives and found this post: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-08/msg00812.html where Bernt Hansen writes You should be able to achieve this by setting the variable org-agenda-filter.. Where does this variable org-agenda-filter come from? If i want to describe it in emacs, i cannot find it. So i think this is a setting which can be passed to commands in org-agenda-custom-commands. (btw: is there a place where all the settings i can pass to these commands is documented?) I created my own agenda-command in my .emacs, but it did not filter the weekly agenda view as described above. This is my code: (setq org-agenda-custom-commands '((d Test Tag Filter ((agenda ((org-agenda-files '(~/org/WeeklyFilterTest.org)) (org-agenda-filter -EXCL))) And this is my ~/org/WeeklyFilterTest.org: * Events :PROPERTIES: :CATEGORY: Event :END: ** Event1 :INCL: 2012-10-29 Mon ** Event2 :INCL: 2012-10-30 Tue ** Event3 :EXCL: 2012-10-30 Tue 18:00 ** Event4 :INCL: 2012-10-30 Tue 19:00 To explain what i want to achieve regarding this example: I want a weekly agenda view only displaying Event1, Event2 and Event4 but not Event3 as it should be excluded by its tag. Any help is appreciated. Regards Alexander

Hi Alexander, Alexander Baier lexi.ba...@gmail.com writes: (setq org-agenda-custom-commands '((d Test Tag Filter ((agenda ((org-agenda-files '(~/org/WeeklyFilterTest.org)) (org-agenda-filter -EXCL))) You need to locally bind `org-agenda-tag-filter-preset' to a list of tags like '(-EXCL). I did not test, but this should be okay: (setq org-agenda-custom-commands '((d Test Tag Filter ((agenda ((org-agenda-files '(~/org/WeeklyFilterTest.org)) (org-agenda-tag-filter-preset '(-EXCL PS: You're right that org-agenda-filter does not exist. -- Bastien

Any help is appreciated. FWIW, my agenda is constructed like this: (w work week agenda agenda ((org-agenda-span 'week) (org-agenda-start-on-weekday 1) ;; work - begin on monday (org-agenda-tag-filter-preset '(+@work)) ;; no OR (phd | @work) possible here! (org-agenda-hide-tags-regexp @work) (org-agenda-compact-blocks t) )) Using the tag-filter-preset allows to change the tags inside the agenda view because it filters the view, not the construction of the agenda. Excluding might work like this: (org-agenda-tag-filter-preset '(+like -dislike)) but I haven't tested this combination. I'm also hiding the @work tag as the other tags (if any) are more relevant then. HTH, Simon Regards Alexander
