This feature does not exist.

In an Org-mode file, it may be useful to rely on tag inheritance
in some occasions where you want to tag many headlines.  But I can see
that tagging a number of headlines from the agenda could be useful.

It is on the list, for after the summer.

Thank you for a wonderful tool I already love to use after a short time.

Hello Carsten,

did I miss that feature on 5.06? I also cannot find it in the docs for 5.09.

Again, how could I mark several todos (maybe create a region) and shift
the schedule date of all marked items simultaneously?
I sometimes have to readjust all private todos from a passed day to
maybe to a future date.

Rainer

This is the command `org-change-tag-in-region'.  It currently has no 
key,
but in the agenda you can simply mark a region and press ":".  I forgot 
to
to document this.

This is not possible.  However, you could try a keyboard macro for this 
kind
of things.

C-x ( 4 S-right <down> C-x )

will define a keyboard macro to shift the date by 4 days into the future
and then move one line down.

With `C-u 1 0 C-x e' you can execute the macro 10 times.....

Nice! (If I understand it correctly, it doesn't handle the { tag1 tag2 }
construct for now?)

A small bug: go in agenda buffer, selec the TODO state of an item with
`t' then try to clear the state with SPACE.  Here it bites like this:

,----
| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument sequencep none)
|    org-todo(nil)
|    org-agenda-todo(nil)
|    call-interactively(org-agenda-todo)
`----
