This is ugly and slow. Say I filter for :client1: and put into year view, it looks something like: Tuesday 30 October 2018 Deadline: description of deadline :client1: Wednesday 31 October 2018 *[unnecessary date with no entry -- why is this here?]* Thursday 1 November 2018 10:00....... a meeting :client1: Is there something obvious I am missing? I just want something like the above command, but without all of the dates shown that fall between time entries. This way I can get a view of all deadlines associated with a client, where those deadlines may exist months or even a year+ in advance (i.e., I don't want to be limited to a year view). Hope this makes sense. I am an orgmode newb. Was very excited at first but the learning curve is really starting to hit me lately. It seems like this should be relatively easy to accomplish. --000000000000c80cd00579213d60 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Say I have a calendar file which is in the following = format:

* descriptio= n of deadline =C2=A0 =C2=A0:client1:
DEADLINE: <2018-10-28 Tue>

* a= meeting :client1:
<2018-11-1 Thu 10:00>

=C2=A0I w= ould like to be able to view all headlines and time entries associated with= a particular tag, and to have that information visible in an agenda buffer= , and for the entries to appear in chronological order along with the assoc= iated dates

If I do C-c a m [tag], the dates do not appear

Se= ems the best I can do to get dates associated with the headline and appear = in chronological order is C-c a a, then filter by tag, then M-x org-agenda-= year-view. This is ugly and slow. Say I filter for :client1: and put into y= ear view, it looks something like:

Tuesday 30 October 2018
=C2=A0 =C2=A0Deadline: descriptio= n of deadline :client1:
Wednesday 31 October 2018 [unnecessary dat= e with no entry -- why is this here?]
Thursday 1 November 2018
=C2=A0=C2=A0 10:00..= ..... a meeting :client1:
