E.g., --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- * item1 ** this is about item 1 about item one ** bla bla :urgent: More bla bla ** More about item1 more about item1 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Since org mode relies on the hierarchical structure of outlines, all of the subheadings are part of the tree beginning with item1. Also, how would a region of tagged text appear in the agenda? The agenda depends on the association of metadata with headlines. Best, Matt
