Hi —
I have a frequent navigation issue in the agenda and I'm curious if anyone else deals with this or has a solution. Like many users I have the currently selected line in the agenda set to be highlighted (an absolute lifesaver). But although I am not very mouse-oriented, as an Aquamacs user I find that the line where the mouse happens to be hovering (not having selected anything) is mostly highlighted in exactly the same was as the selected line. This is a cause of frequent error on my part. I only notice this in the agenda, not in other files.
Is there any way to turn off the latter effect?
TIA
— Michael

Untested:
(add-hook 'org-finalize-agenda-hook
(lambda () (remove-text-properties
(point-min) (point-max) '(mouse-face t))))
This might also turn off the mouse bindings in the agenda, at least
some of them.
But maybe this is actually also what you'd like to have....

Tested. Fantastic. Doesn't disable mouse-bindings completely, but totally solves my problem. Thank you so much.

A littlebit less radical solution would be to change either the
`hl-line' or the `highlight' face so that they don't look identical. Do
do that, do
M-x customize-face hl-line RET
or
M-x customize-face highlight RET
Bye,
Tassilo
