Could ‘show tree’ show the parent task when child task matches the query?

[yodaliu0414]

Hi everybody, I'm trying to use the new function 'show tree' these days, and I have a question here: Could ‘show tree’ show the parent task when child task matches the query?

For example, supposing we have the following list:

• Have a party ⏳ 2025-01-09
  • Invite friends⏳ 2025-01-09
  • Book a restaurant ⏳ 2025-01-09
  • Send Emails ⏳ 2025-01-10
    And we have query:

scheduled on 2025-01-10

show tree

Could it be possible to show the task like

• Have a party ⏳ 2025-01-09
  • Send Emails ⏳ 2025-01-10

instead of

• Send Emails ⏳ 2025-01-10

(this is what I could get now)

I think it would be nice if we can see the parent task as a reminder to recall details of the task.

Thank you!

This would be very useful for tasks with concise descriptions, which assume the knowledge of the ascendant ones.
It's a bit like incoming / outgoing links.

We track new requests in Issues, not Q&A though.

Feel free to make a Feature Request for it then, in Issues.

You should include - in markdown text I can copy for testing - a real-world example of the task structure - and what you want the query results to look like.

I will make a new request later. I thought it might be an existed function I don't know, so I put it in Q&A. Sorry for that.
