I have switched to using org files as 'calendars'. (events.org, university.org, etc)
I am using the agenda to view them.
However I am still having some troubles with 2 things:
1. different colors for different calendars (e.g. entries from events.org in orange)
2. toggling the visibility of individual calendars
=> 1
Would it be possible to use different faces for different files?
Or maybe even different faces for different categories?
,---- What I have:
|[blue ] Saturday 1 May 2010
|[black] events: Adam's party
|[black] events: Magic show
|[black] university: 10:15-12:00 Management test
`----
,---- What I want:
|[blue ] Saturday 1 May 2010
|[orange] events: Adam's party
|[orange] events: Adam's party
|[purple] university: 10:15-12:00 Management test
`----
=> 2
I do know that I can restrict the agenda to a single file,
but how can I toggle the visibility of a single file? (e.g. exclude one file)
Plus... Once I have toggled one file invisible...
I would need some kind of overview of which files(calendars) are hidden and which ones are still active.
One possible workaround would be using file-tags and filtering by them.
While I do like the idea, it still does not solve the issue of knowing
which files(calendars) are active and which ones are hidden at the moment.
Plus I would be even happier if we could find a solution without using tags.
A menu (just like the todo-kwd menu <C-c t>) would be ideal as an interface for toggling calendars
and getting an overview of the currently displayed ones.

AFAIK, if that's the case, then the italic attribute is just ignored. Nick ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

Nice try -- and you're definitely right asking (as this could easily be overlooked), but here that's not the case: my font is Consolas (under Ubuntu), which comes in italics. And I get _all the tags in italics_, thanks to the above specification of `org-tag' -- _all but 2_ tags: `home' and `work', which come in their upright version, independently of the argument passed in `org-tag-faces'.

I've just noticed, in the 1000's of lines in my `*Messages*' buffer, something that can explain the noticed behavior: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Invalid face attribute :italic t [54 times] --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Though, I don't understand why that attribute is invalid in the above spec!?

That said, I can only suggest what I tried in my case. I set org-tag-faces as above, added a :home: tag to a TODO item, placed the cursor on a character in the tag and then did `C-u M-x what-cursor-position'. I got the following: ,---- | character: m (109, #o155, #x6d) | preferred charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV)) | code point: 0x6D | syntax: w which means: word | category: .:Base, a:ASCII, l:Latin, r:Roman | buffer code: #x6D | file code: #x6D | display: by this font (glyph code) | x:-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso8859-1 (#x6D) | | Character code properties: customize what to show | name: LATIN SMALL LETTER M | general-category: Ll (Letter, Lowercase) | | There are text properties here: | face (:background "#D4EAFF" :italic t) | font-lock-fontified t | fontified t | keymap [Show] | mouse-face highlight | org-no-flyspell t `---- so the face attributes obey what org-tag-faces said, but I think the font itself cannot do what is asked: (font-face-attributes "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso8859-1") gives (:family "fixed" :height 145 :weight normal :slant normal :width normal) This applies to my setup of course, so YMMV, but it seemed likely that that's what you were running into, hence my question. You might be able to use the mechanisms described in sec. 38.12.8, "Font Selection", of the Emacs Lisp manual to accomplish what you want, but I can't help you there: I decided a long time ago not to step foot into those waters.
