(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 ) would be ideal as an interface for toggling calendars and getting an overview of the currently displayed ones.
