metadata clutterring the view

Hello list,

I have an issue where one of my org files has so much metadate in the top,
that it ends up by cluttering the view of the contents of the file. Is there
a way to also collapse it somehow or hide it?

Here's a screenshot:

Thanks in advance,

Marcelo.

How about using #+SETUPFILE: file ? Will that take care of it?

I may be misunderstanding the problem but if it is just hiding all
that config stuff at the beginning of the file for this I simply put
an initial dummy item:

* BEGINNING OF FILE
... Lots of configuration stuff ...
... Lots of configuration stuff ...
... Lots of configuration stuff ...
* First item in the file 
* Second item in the file 
etc. 

and then simply collapse that first dummy item. SETUPFILE is also an
option, --Manuel

I always create a setup section just like you, but put it *last* in  
the file.
There it is out of the way.

Put all the tags in one line?

#+TAGS: WORK(w) URGENT(u) ENGLISH(e) CUSTOMER_A(A) CUSTOMER_B(b) DOC(d) BIB(b) EMACS(E) LOCAL(l) IDEE(i)


I think the startup options work in one line too.

Regards,

  Sebastian

Forgot to say:

use

  M-x customize-group RET org RET


Put common things there.

My trick is to hide it.

* COMMENT Config
#+blah
#+blah
#+blah


If #+SETUPFILE that Dan mentioned does what I think it does, I will
probably be changin my evil ways since right now I cut and paste the
same config section into all of my main project files.
