Mine are ordered that way too. > SPC on a task in the agenda opens the task including the drawer Actually I think Carsten fixed that thing-I-thought-was-a-bug-but-you-thought-was-a-feature.

I'm using the new org-agenda-follow-indirect feature with this patch (http://patchwork.newartisans.com/patch/1004/)... and the idea is to get a somewhat minimal view of the item. I don't want to open the whole thing. But I can understand why nobody else would be calling for this feature since probably I'm the only one using org-agenda-follow-indirect ATM. -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
