Elementary: How to return to the main view

Elementary: How to return to the main view

Hi,

From the main view, if I click on a tag, org-mode will show only items with
that tag.  How to go back to the main view?

Is the information I see when I click on a tag a sparse tree?  If so, how to
return from a sparse tree to the main view?

Must be quite elementary, but I can't figure it out.

Thanks,

+1. This was confusing to me as well. Does it open a new buffer? If
so, you could just switch back with C-x b RET.

But you bring up a good point. What should I see with a sparse tree?
If I do a sparse tree in a doc with TODO's scattered through out, and
the regex I choose is "TODO", I was expecting everything else to be
folded away (fold region or what-not). Instead, the TODOs are merely
highlighted on my machine.

Maybe a clearer explanation/example in the documentation could help.
Or perhaps a tutorial on sparse trees on Worg?

Best,
Jeff

I just tried it. For me, clicking on the tags of an entry will open an
agenda view showing all items from my agenda files which have a superset
of the tags of this entry.

Org will re-use an existing agenda buffer for this if possible,
otherwise it will open a new agenda buffer. You can get back to your Org
file by switching buffers (C-x b RET) or killing the agenda buffer (C-x
k RET).

I am running Org-mode version 7.01trans (release_7.01h.226.ge238a).

HTH, Jan

And if you do not like this way to display an agenda view, i.e. if you  
mostly click tags by accident, you can turn off the activation of tags  
as links by customizing the variable org-activate-links

Press `q'


No idea what the "main view" might be... I can click tags in Org mode
buffers only.
