Column view

Column view

[Flavio Souza]

Hi I am using org-mode for project planning for sometime now.

Today I had a problem when using column view. 

The upper headers are not updating the Effort values in the column view.

See the picture:

Please, help me.

Thanks,

I personally do not use the Effort functionality but It works for me
with a simple test setup (with todays git version).

I used a tree where some property values where mis-spelled or empty and
it worked nice, as expected.

But I noticed that if I had a corrupt #+COLUMNS: definition line I got
similar (but not very) behavior as you when I removed some :Effort:
properties in the structure (I think no new calculations where done).


Just some tips, I do not know if it will help, but anyway:


Maybe have a extra look at the #+COLUMNS: definition line, post it here?  

Are some properties damaged?

What happens if you try a smaller setup in a new file, does it work?

Check that your effort property is ':Effort:' and not ':EFFORT:' or some
other case setting.  I noticed an issue with the value showing up as
blank in column mode if the case wasn't just right.
