Re: [Orgmode] Highlighting Sparse Tree Leaves

Hi Wanrong,

No, I think you need to find a different way around this.
For example by using a different keyword for the headings that contain the true TODO items. I use PROJECT or something similar.
When you then search for TODO, the true tasks will be highlighted.

Hi,

Is it possible to highlighting only the sparse tree leaves, or even better, highlighting the whole sparse tree but with leaves in a special face?

The motivation for such a feature is this:

Suppose I have a task tree like this:

* TODO Task A
*** TODO Task A.1
***** TODO Task A.1.1
* TODO Task B
*** TODO Task B.1
***** TODO Task B.1.1
***** TODO Task B.1.2

If I do a "org-sparse-tree", all those lines are highlighted, giving an impression that I have a lot of open tasks, but in reality I only have three tasks: A.1.1, B.1.1 and B.1.2, as the higher level tasks are automatically done if those are done. So it would be nice to highlight those leaves in a special face. Also, suppose both B.1.1 and B.1.2 are done, then Task B.1 should be highlighted as a leaf.

Hope the above makes some sense. Thank you very much for giving it a thought.

Wanrong
