In the below example
----------------------------------------------------------------
#+PROPERTY: Age 25
#+COLUMNS: %25ITEM %Age
* Heading 1
* Heading 2
----------------------------------------------------------------
When I try to use column view to edit the property it is not using the
format that I mentioned at the file level.
But the following one works
----------------------------------------------------------------
* Heading 1
:PROPERTIES:
:Age: 25
:COLUMNS: %25ITEM %Age
:END:
* Heading 2
----------------------------------------------------------------
Looks like the file level settings are not working.
Thanks and Regards
Noorul
