Hello all,

I just spent some time trying to find out, how to get back to the whole 
buffer after having narrowed in to a subtree ('org-narrow-to-subtree', 
C-x n s). I could not find any hints in the documentation as to how to 
return to the whole buffer. A search of the mailing list hinted, that 
the right word to use in this context might be "widen", and then I found 
the corresponding function 'widen' with the key C-x n w. This does not 
appear anywhere in the documentation (search through the one-page online 
html does not find the word "widen" at all), nor on the reference card, 
where a logical place for it would be after the narrow buffer -command 
in "Structure Editing".
	I realise that this is not an Org-function, but a part of the Emacs 
internals (I guess), but the documentation might still point to it.

But how do I clean the buffer after sparse tree by criteria -selection ( 
C-c / )?


Thanks for a wonderful productivity tool, though.

Harri K.

PS. Please include me in the replies, as I'm not a member of the list.

I have added tis piece of info to the manual and to the reference  
card.  Thanks for your feedback.

What do you mean by "clean".

You can use `C-c C-a' to show everything, or S-TAB once or several  
times to cycle through global visibility states.

Sorry, I meant (C-c \), which gives a TAG query. If I select a tag, its 
entry is coloured, if I select no tags, all entries are coloured, but 
how to remove the selection/colouring altogether was the problem. I did 
discover, that (C-c / t RET) removes all the colouring, but only after 
receiving you response. 'C-c C-a' and S-TAB just change the views, but 
the selected entries still stay coloured.
	Hope I managed to express the problem.

C-c C-c will get rid of those highlights.

Also, when the option org-remove-highlights-with-change it t (the  
default), and editing in the buffer will make the highlights disappear  
as well.
