When I'm viewing an agenda (using my custom agenda command), I like to
hit 'f' to put it in follow mode so I can see the context of the entry
I'm viewing. However, in many cases there are enough entries under a
given heading that the heading has scrolled off the screen. Is there a
way to have follow mode condense the view it shows to only show the
parents and children but not the siblings? Otherwise I have to tab over
to the .org file and page up which gets old pretty fast.
(I did read the manual but didn't see a solution. I'm sorry if I missed
it.)
Thanks,
:AMN:

Hi Andrew,
no, there i nothing in Org to do this by default.
However, you can hack it like this:
(defun my-compact-follow ()
(ignore-errors
(save-excursion
(while (org-up-heading-safe))
(hide-subtree)))
(let ((org-show-siblings nil)
(org-show-hierarchy-above t))
(org-reveal))
(save-excursion
(org-back-to-heading t)
(show-children)))
(add-hook 'org-agenda-after-show-hook 'my-compact-follow)
Hope this helps
- Carsten
