Marks not visible in column view

Marks not visible in column view

[Gonzalo Camarillo]

Hi,

in the agenda we can mark several entries for bulk processing. In the
following example, the second and third agenda entries are marked. To
indicate they are marked, a '>' symbol is shown right before them:

  Projects:   TODO Write the document
> Projects:   TODO Call Bob
> Projects:   TODO Arrange meeting with Laura

Now, if we enter column view, those marks are not visible. For example,
the following column view shows the title, the TODO keyword, and the
estimated effort for all entries:

Write the document         | TODO  | 0:30 |
Call Bob                   | TODO  | 0:15 |
Arrange meeting with Laura | TODO  | 0:10 |

Is it possible to have the column view show which entries are marked?

Thanks,

Gonzalo

Hi,

I forgot to mention I am using Emacs 24.2.1 on Windows.

Cheers,

Hi,

we have had a conversation about this issue on the org-mode IRC channel
and have agreed to follow up on this list in case anybody has further ideas.

The function org-agenda-bulk-marked-p indicates whether or not an entry
is marked. Would it be possible to use it somehow to define a special
property that could be shown in column view?

Any other ways to attack this problem (i.e., to make marked entries
visually distinct in column view) would also be appreciated.

Thanks,

Gonzalo
