stuck project and check boxes

stuck project and check boxes

[Ivan Kanis]

Hello,

I'd like to setup my project like this:

* project
** TODO buy house
 - [ ] check house market
 - [ ] save money

I would like to list stuck projects with the following definition:

 - projects that do not have check boxes
 - projects that have all their check boxes set

Is it possible?

Kind regards,

For now it's not possible.  It would require `org-stuck-projects' to
allow user-defined function to check against subtrees.  

Still, you can use a regexp to match non-stuck projects, if that may
help -- see the docstring of `org-stuck-projects'.

You can totally replace the standard stuck projects definition with a
custom agenda command that uses whatever lisp skipper functions you need
to accomplish the view you want.  I created a '#' custom agenda command
that uses a different stuck projects definition for my setup as outlined
at http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html#Projects

You should be able to implement something similar for your use case.
