I deal with this by inserting a table in the subtree main task with the
current snapshot of estimates.
I have the following global setting in my .emacs
,----[ .emacs setup for column mode ]
| (setq org-columns-default-format "%40ITEM(Task) %17Effort(Estimated
Effort){:} %CLOCKSUM")
`----
If you have something like this:
,----[ test.org ]
| * Project 1
| ** Task 1
| :PROPERTIES:
| :Effort: 1:00
| :END:
| ** Task 2
| :PROPERTIES:
| :Effort: 2:00
| :END:
| ** Task 3
| :PROPERTIES:
| :Effort: 0:10
| :END:
`----
and you put the insertion point in the level 1 task and hit
C-c C-x r RET
You get a table like the following
,----
| * Project 1
| #+BEGIN: columnview :hlines 1 :id local
| | Task | Estimated Effort | CLOCKSUM |
| |-------------+------------------+----------|
| | * Project 1 | 3:10 | |
| | ** Task 1 | 1:00 | |
| | ** Task 2 | 2:00 | |
| | ** Task 3 | 0:10 | |
| #+END:
| ** Task 1
| :PROPERTIES:
| :Effort: 1:00
| :END:
| ** Task 2
| :PROPERTIES:
| :Effort: 2:00
| :END:
| ** Task 3
| :PROPERTIES:
| :Effort: 0:10
| :END:
`----
That does exactly what I need for sharing estimates and taking a
snapshot of the estimated time. I'm then free to change the estimates
during the project and compare that to my initial information.
The table is exported to HTML when I export the document.
Hope that helps,
Bernt
