Effort by category in agenda view

Effort by category in agenda view

Hello,

Currently the agenda gives an overview of the total effort scheduled in
hours. Filtering items from the agenda does not affect the effort estimate
for the day. I would like to have the displayed effort estimate be a
function of what is currently filtered, so that I can see how much time in
the day I am planning to allocate to work tasks etc by filtering to the
work category. Can anyone give me a high level pointer to how this might be
done or what variables I should configure?

Best,
Patrick Nicodemus

May you please elaborate where exactly you are seeing the estimate? Is
it agenda column view?

Igor;
Yes, I am referring to the agenda column view, using the "Effort" property;
I should have clarified.

Column view in agenda does not support updating summaries when applying
filters.

As usual, patches welcome, of course.
