another way of inserting effort estimates

another way of inserting effort estimates

[Seweryn kokot]

Hello,

When I want to insert effort estimates, I type for example 0:20 or 1:40 or cycle
the allowed values of Effort properties. Would it be possible to have something
similar to the date/time prompts, and instead of typing in the Effort property
0:20 or 1:40, just to type 20m or 1h40m or (1h40)? Where "m" stands for minutes
and "h" for hour. The reason for this is that I moved the colon somewhere else
on my keyboard and now it is not easily available.

regards,
Seweryn

As another alternative - in column mode:

When editing the effort column from a preset list of choices the number
keys 1-9 and 0 insert the value at that index in the list of choices
(where 0 inserts index 10)
