AFAIK, scheduling information is not included when constructing tags or todo views. > As an aside, %s is not exactly what I need, as I was looking for a way > to display a single character flag (S or D for scheduled or deadline), > but this is also fine. You can control the display of scheduled and deadline information with org-agenda-scheduled-leaders and org-agenda-deadline-leaders, but I believe this only applies to the agenda view. Best, Matt
