Hello,
Now that there’s more eyes on ‘org-colview’ (thanks Sławomir!), I
think there’s a low-priority bug with the currency summary type.
According to to (info "(org)Column Attributes") ‘$’ should be a
shorthand for ‘+;%.2f’, but it doesn’t always act this way in the
column view (‘org-columns’, ‘C-c C-x C-c’) and dynamic block. Parent
nodes are properly formatted, but the leaves are not:
Example 1:
#+COLUMNS: %ITEM(Item) %COST(Cost){$}
#+BEGIN: columnview :id global :format "%ITEM(Item) %COST(Cost){$}"
| Item | Cost |
|--------+------|
| Item 1 | 3.5 |
#+END:
* Item 1
:PROPERTIES:
:COST: 3.5
:END:
vs.
#+COLUMNS: %ITEM(Item) %COST(Cost){+;%.2f}
#+BEGIN: columnview :id global :format "%ITEM(Item) %COST(Cost){+;%.2f}"
| Item | Cost |
|--------+------|
| Item 1 | 3.50 |
#+END:
* Item 1
:PROPERTIES:
:COST: 3.5
:END:
Example 2:
#+COLUMNS: %ITEM(Item) %COST(Cost){$}
#+BEGIN: columnview :id global :format "%ITEM(Item) %COST(Cost){$}"
| Item | Cost |
|--------+------|
| Item 1 | 3.50 |
| Item 2 | 2 |
| Item 3 | 1.5 |
#+END:
* Item 1
** Item 2
:PROPERTIES:
:COST: 2
:END:
** Item 3
:PROPERTIES:
:COST: 1.5
:END:
vs.
#+COLUMNS: %ITEM(Item) %COST(Cost){+;%.2f}
#+BEGIN: columnview :id global :format "%ITEM(Item) %COST(Cost){+;%.2f}"
| Item | Cost |
|--------+------|
| Item 1 | 3.50 |
| Item 2 | 2.00 |
| Item 3 | 1.50 |
#+END:
* Item 1
** Item 2
:PROPERTIES:
:COST: 2
:END:
** Item 3
:PROPERTIES:
:COST: 1.5
:END:
etc.
Thanks,
