Hello Ihor,

Ihor Radchenko <yantar92@posteo.net> (2023-04-16 11:09 +0000):

I understand. However, the docstring of the variable says:

"Instead of t, this variable can also have the value ‘invisible’.
Then blocked tasks will be invisible and only become visible when
they become unblocked.  An exemption to this behavior is when a task is
blocked because of unchecked checkboxes below it.  Since checkboxes do
not show up in the agenda views, making this task invisible you remove any
trace from agenda views that there is something to do.  Therefore, a task
that is blocked because of checkboxes will never be made invisible, it
will only be dimmed."

I don't understand how this fits with the behavior you describe.

All the best,
Gautier.
