mouse highlight on agenda lines

mouse highlight on agenda lines

[Thomas S. Dye]

Aloha all,

After a recent upgrade to emacs 24, and using the Org-mode that ships
with emacs (7.8.11), the following code that has been in my
initialization file for a long time no longer works:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle yes
  (add-hook 'org-finalize-agenda-hook
    (lambda () (remove-text-properties
               (point-min) (point-max) '(mouse-face t))))
#+end_src

It used to keep the mouse pointer from highlighting agenda lines.

Any idea why it is broken now?

All the best,
Tom

Maybe.

C-h v org-finalize-agenda-hook says:

,----
| org-finalize-agenda-hook's value is ((lambda nil
|    (remove-text-properties
|     (point-min)
|     (point-max)
|     '(mouse-face t))))
| 
| 
|   This variable is obsolete since 24.3;
|   use `org-agenda-finalize-hook' instead.

Hi Nick,

I'm on a bumpy upgrade road here.  I like the promise of ELPA, but so
far the org package hasn't worked so well for me :(

On my system, C-h v org-finalize-agenda-hook says:

org-finalize-agenda-hook is a variable defined in `org-agenda.el'.
Its value is ((lambda nil
   (remove-text-properties
    (point-min)
    (point-max)
    '(mouse-face t))))

Original value was nil

  This variable is potentially risky when used as a file local variable.

Documentation:
Hook run just before displaying an agenda buffer.

I see from your post that the hook I'm using will go away when I find
time to get current again.  I suppose there is no sense trying to figure
out why my soon-to-be-obsolete hook isn't working on an outdated system.

Thanks,
Tom

Do you have org-agenda-finalize-hook? If so, try adding your function to
that. It seems to work for me, but we *are* running different bits, so you
might have to get back onto the bleeding edge before it works for you
again.

Hi Nick,

Nope, org-agenda-finalize-hook is still a gleam my installation's eye.

I appreciate your help and will be back once I manage to climb back onto
the bleeding edge again.
