TODO state for heading intersection?

TODO state for heading intersection?

[Jean Louis]

Is there a way to change TODO state for intersection of headings, for example, for some headings by tag to change the TODO state at once?

idk if i understand your q but you can do agenda on tag and then batch command.

IIUC, you can use `org-map-entries` to apply the function `org-todo`
(or a different function if you want) to a collection of nodes in a
file that are specified through tags/properties matches:

   (org-map-entries #'org-todo "LEVEL=1" 'file)

will apply it to top-level nodes only.

See

   (info "(org)Using the Mapping API")

and

   (info "(org)Matching tags and properties")

Thanks, what batch command do you mean?

Do you mean this one:

org-batch-agenda is an autoloaded Lisp macro in ‘org-agenda.el’.

(org-batch-agenda CMD-KEY &rest PARAMETERS)

Run an agenda command in batch mode and send the result to STDOUT.
If CMD-KEY is a string of length 1, it is used as a key in
‘org-agenda-custom-commands’ and triggers this command.  If it is a
longer string it is used as a tags/todo match string.
Parameters are alternating variable names and values that will be bound
before running the agenda command.

Programmatically I can do it in many ways. 

I speak of doing it in easy manner.

I am thankful for all people who answered, though I found solution:

1. Run Org Agenda on keyword.

2. Mark the items

3. Invoke "B" for bulk action

4. Change the state of TODO.
