how to hide titles marked with "DONE"

how to hide titles marked with "DONE"

[bofe]

Hi,
	I use org to manage my projects. When some works are finished ,I marked the titles “DONE”,but as time goes by ,there are too many of them, that I can’t focus on the rest of unfinished works.
	Is there a way to hide the “DONE" titles,rather than delete them?

	Thanks a lot!

You can toggle the archive tag (C-c C-x a) or archive the tasks
(C-c C-x C-a).

As I do suffer from the same problem, and do not take the time to
archive all DONE subtrees, I think that an alternative approach would be
that DONE subtrees wouldn't be expanded (by default) in the S-TAB
cycles.

Does that sound reasonable?

PS- Don't even know if that's easy/doable/etc., but I regard this as
likeable.

Not to me, as there would be no real difference between DONE and
ARCHIVED tasks then.

The solution is somewhere between the keyboard and the chair :)

You're of course right.  Though, without archiving manually the DONE
items, the current view is confusing, see
http://screencast.com/t/AdVMyOJge32Z.

It'd be good that the `org-headline-done' face would be propagated to
the DONE subtrees, and not only to the main headline.  That would
improve a lot the readability of Org tasks lists.

Best regards,
