Re: Highlighting Sparse Tree Leaves

[Carsten Dominik <dominik@science.uva.nl>]

Hi Wanrong,

No, I think you need to find a different way around this.
For example by using a different keyword for the headings that contain  
the true TODO items.  I use PROJECT or something similar.
When you then search for TODO, the true tasks will be highlighted.
