Here is a conversation from the emacs Stack Exchange question and answer we= bsite. It's from December. Asker> I would like to make it easy to find where are the free Asker> blocks of time in my org-mode agenda. Asker>=20 Asker> For instance, if I have two appointments one Asker> 9:30am-10:30am and another 11:15am-12:30pm, I would like Asker> to see at a glance that the 10:30am-11:15am block is Asker> free. Asker>=20 Asker> In other words, I want to be able to distinguish free Asker> time as easily as it is done in a graphical agenda such Asker> as Google calendar. Asker>=20 Asker> Is there a way to make the empty blocks of time easy to Asker> see? Perhaps to colorize the empty blocks that are Asker> longer than a given number of minutes? Commenter> Is the org-agenda-time-grid not sufficient for your Commenter> needs? Commenter> https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/org/Time_002= dof_002dday-specifications.html Asker> The grid is not enough, as it shows ups even when the Asker> time is busy (e.g., if there's a 9:30am-10:30am meeting, Asker> there will be a grid line at 10:00am). I would like busy Asker> and non-busy times to be easy to distinguish. Asker> I have thought a little bit more about this Asker> functionality. I believe the most useful and simplest to Asker> implement would be to change the color of the time block Asker> (only the name of the time block, e.g., 8:00-9:00) for Asker> those time blocks that have more than a given amount of Asker> free time (e.g., more than 15 minutes). Both the color Asker> and the minimum free time should be user configurable. (from http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/5395/show-free-blocks-of-tim= e-in-org-modes-agenda) A brief search of the most recent ~32k mailing list posts didn't tell me ho= w to answer this question. Does anyone here know? Cheers, --Dave
