Hello All,
I have set a "#+FILETAGS: :Personal:" in my org file (did a C-c C-c
to initilalize it.) The tag did not appear in the agenda view
like I
expected it to. I was hoping to use agenda view filtering on
tags to
see a subset of tasks with that tag (without having to set that for
all tasks.) What else do I need to do for it to work?
Okay. I think I realize my mistake now.
The FILETAGS are NOT meant to be displayed and hence can not be used
for filtering items in agenda view. They are meant to be matched
while creating agenda only.
No. They are used when the agenda is created, and they are stored
in a text
property on the entry. If you press "T", you should see all the
tags of an
entry. I just tested it, and it works fine, including filtering,
which acts
on the text-property tags, not only on the displayed tags.
Maybe you have turned off tag inheritance? Because file tags are
*inherited* by all entries in the buffer.
