Also, when removing the recurrence markup, changing the item to DONE keeps the -1h intact. Bye, Tassilo ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

Given that timestamps can have an hour and minute component, the h syntax seems logical, right? Cheers, Martin Pohlack ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

How are you planing to use this? I have a weekly recurring event which is due Friday 17:00, but I can only start working on it shortly before, say 2 h. I would like it not to appear in the agenda until 15:00 at Friday, or it could appear at Friday's agenda, with an extended timestamp (15:00), so I know it has to be done later. I could also be handled like this item: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * TODO test4 DEADLINE: <2009-07-06 Mo 14:00> SCHEDULED: <2009-07-06 Mo 13:00> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In the agenda: Monday 6 July 2009 W28 8:00...... ---------------- 10:00...... ---------------- 12:00...... ---------------- file.org:13:00...... Scheduled: TODO test4 file.org:14:00...... Deadline: TODO test4 14:00...... ---------------- 16:00...... ---------------- 18:00...... ---------------- 20:00...... ---------------- Cheers, Martin Pohlack ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

The daily agenda is really about "what is up today", and it should tell you in the morning what stuff is waiting for you instead of giving you nasty surprises at 3 in the afternoon. You can add a repeater to both the deadline and the scheduled item, they will both be kicked forward when you mark the entry done.

Ahh, this solves my problem, thanks. I didn't know they were completed in one step.
