I have projects with actions. Projects can be tagged active or
completed. Actions are also tagged in various ways, but it is not
possible - via the action tiddler itself - to tell if it's project is
tagged active or completed.

How can you list the actions belonging to only active projects?

An archived thread [1] suggests fET to generate sortable tables, but I
don't want tables only a simple list. (I wouldn't mind using fET
though.)

Thank you!

I cant solve your problem but I avoid this need by doing the following;

Review a list of active projects, select a project
Review a list of actions relating to that specific project

That is if you create a view of your actions filtered by a specific project you will not see other actions be they part of active or inactive projects.

There are I am sure there are plenty of ways to do what you ask but do you really want it :)

Thanks but I'm hoping for a more generic answer on how to filter
"cousin tiddlers" and ideally even by the n'th cousin. Surely this
must be a common problem with many standard solutions or even a plugin
around already, that is economical from a processing point of view.

Previously I "cut-paste-trial"-ed together a solution using arrays to
store intermediate filter results, but due to my poor programming
skills it became very spaghetti in the overall application and the
result was slow.

Thoughts, anyone?

Thanks!
