If a checkbox item is such a big task that it deserves its own DEADLINE/SCHEDULED/normal date, then you should have used a TODO heading in the first place.

Well, but that also doesn't make the checkboxes appear in the agenda so that you could check them off there. I guess, that was what Nick wanted to achieve. But with your suggestion at least you know that there are checkboxes below that TODO headline. And then you can hit SPACE to check them off in a separate buffer.

As Dave writes, Checkboxes have no meta data to decide about inclusion in the agenda view. They are meant as fine- grained subdivision of tasks. - Carsten > > > Nick Parker > www.developernotes.com > > > On Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 1:18 AM, Carsten Dominik <carsten.dominik@gmail.com > > wrote: > > On Jun 23, 2010, at 6:05 PM, Nick Parker wrote: > > Is there a way to allow checkboxes to be displayed within an agenda > view?
