Hi,
I was wondering how to create a list that contains all habits including
their consistency graph. At the end of the week I want an overview over all
of my habit entries and how consistent I have been. Consistency graphs are
a nice for that purpose, but they are scattered all over my weekly (or
monthly!) agenda. This makes it rather hard to get a concise overview.
It would be nice if orgmode could somehow show all habits in a list with
the corresponding consistency graph next to it. It's straight forward to
create a property search that finds and displays all habits, but org-mode
has so far resisted my attempts at inserting consistency graphs into those
search views.
How could this be accomplished?
best regards,
Henning Weiss

This would be very helpful for me too.

You should be able to do this with an agenda, skipping
entries that are not habits. (See `org-agenda-skip-function'
on how to use your own function for skipping entries.)

Hi Bastien,
I tried using a skip function to create an agenda that only contains habits
following this post<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-02/msg00944.html>.
To display habits that are not scheduled for today, I enabled
"org-habit-show-habits-only-for-today". This made it possible for me to
view all other habits by navigating through the agenda.
The problem with this approach is that some of my habits have various
intervals, ie. daily, bi-weekly, bi-monthly and monthly. This makes it
quite cumbersome to track down all of the habits in the agenda. Also, there
is a lot of "noise" because of the agenda day separators and the
"duplication" of habits (ie. daily habits are displayed every day).
How can I get a "cleaner" view of the habit list for entries that are
scheduled at some point in the future? Maybe if it would somehow be
possible to create an agenda that "collapses" multiple days into one, I
could filter it by habit to give me a habit list. I could see myself using
this collapsed agenda for other things as well.

I implemented the above functionality, and pushed it to master. There
is new customization variable `org-habit-show-all-today' which when
set to t, will show all habits (even if they are scheduled for the
future) on today's agenda.
In fact I kind of like it, so wondering maybe it should be made `t' by
default?
Regards,
Max

Please no. I do not want to be overwhelmed by seeing all of my habits every
day, since that defeats the whole purpose of Org-mode for me: reducing
overwhelm.
Thanks, John

This will come in handy for custom agenda commands. (I had been relying
on a weekly view to see most habits.)

Please keep the default nil. For new users, it might be confusing to
have tasks scheduled for a different day show up on today's date.
Question about the docstring for org-habit-show-all-today: it says "even
if they are not scheduled." (I assume that means "not scheduled today,"
since entirely unscheduled habits do not work.)
Best,
Matt
