What option do you select? I didn't see the menu, so I've just gone back to try and re-create the error. It seems that I was exiting the menu rather than selecting an option in my haste to switch windows, so wasn't selecting anything. I can now see that simply making the PROPERTIES drawer visible has the effect of dimming the blocked todos once I refresh.

All the other customizations in that file are working OK. I have (require 'pdm-org) in my .emacs and the only other items which pertain to org-mode which come after that line are the Customize settings for org-agenda-files (which seem to be working fine) and org-stuck-projects (which I also have a problem with!) I'm quite prepared to believe that I have some items in the wrong order - I'm fairly unsophisticated in elisp terms, but I have a minimal .emacs with (require... lines for a series of mode-specific customization files. > Or maybe you have first > > (org-agenda-list) > > in .emacs, and then > > (load-file "~/pdm-org.el") > > or some trick like this? > I don't seem to have that variable set anywhere.

Don't think I can paste the nntp link, but on Gmane it's at: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/11398 Thanks Paul
