Faces for deadlines?

Faces for deadlines?

[Sébastien Vauban]

Hello,

I'm trying to customize the display of deadlines.

I currently have:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(org-upcoming-deadline ((t (:foreground "white" :background "rgb:E9/A3/6A" :weight bold))))
(org-warning ((t (:foreground "white" :background "rgb:D8/00/00" :weight bold))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

in my color-theme, but I would like to have (for example):

- red for actions due in the past ("In -2 d.")

- orange for actions due today ("Deadline")

- green for actions due in the next coming days ("In 3 d.")
  (DEADLINE <= `org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled')

- blue for longer-term deadlines ("In 13 d.")
  (DEADLINE > `org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled' and
   DEADLINE <= `org-deadline-warning-days')

Is this possible?

Best regards,
  Seb

I have not tried it but I found this variable:

org-agenda-deadline-faces

"Faces for showing deadlines in the agenda."

maybe it solves your problem?

Excellent hint...


I've customized it that way:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    (setq org-agenda-deadline-faces
          '((1.1 . sva-org-deadline-yesterday)
            (1.0 . sva-org-deadline-today)
            (0.5 . sva-org-deadline-tomorrow)
            (0.0 . sva-org-deadline-later)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and have added the following colors in my theme:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
     (sva-org-deadline-yesterday ((t (:foreground "white" :background "rgb:D8/00/00" :weight bold))))
     (sva-org-deadline-today ((t (:foreground "white" :background "rgb:E9/A3/6A" :weight bold))))
     (sva-org-deadline-tomorrow ((t (:foreground "black" :background "#B4F1B3" :weight bold))))
     (sva-org-deadline-later ((t (:foreground "black" :background "#AACAFC"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

And that quite works well following my needs.

It's just a bit tricky to understand and correctly setup the "fractions"
above, in the `org-agenda-deadline-faces'... It would be easy, and would make
more sense, if we could directly enter "days specifications" there, instead of
fractions (for example, "0" for today, "-1" for yesterday, and so on).

But it works. And I thank you for your help.

Best regards,
  Seb
