Hi Carsten, by pressing the C-c C-c in front of :PROPERTIES:, i've been offered these property actions: Property Action: [s]et [d]elete [D]delete globally (Should be "[D]elete", no?)
Definitely.
It might be useful here to be able to [c]ompute or [u]pdate the property value depending on its children, at least for values with a summary typelike {+}, {X} or {:}.
The problem is that the summary type is a property of the column view format, not of the property itself. So it is not entirely obvious how and with what scope this command should be interpreted - even though I think we should have it. Another issue is that even though column view show the summary values, they are not by default inserted into the properties list of the parent node. If the parent node does have the property, its value is updated. If it does not have it, the property will not be added. I thought this would be useful to avoid the property drawer filling with stuff you might not want there. So for the summing command you propose, we need to decide how to handle this question. Maybe with a prefix argument, force the creation of the property in the parent nodes? - Carsten
Perhaps [C]ompute/[U]pdate globally (all properties) has also its place here. -- Bastien _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode
