How I reproduce it: 1. start emacs 2. open any file 3. open a 2nd window or frame for the *Messages* buffer 4. type ctrl-g in the open file's buffer - notice only Quit messages in the *Messages* buffer i.e. the normal effect 5. open master.org 6. create an agenda with ctrl-a a 7. type G into the agenda window (This is just one of several ways to produce the problem.) 8. now type ctrl-g in ANY of the open file's buffers or the agenda window itself and observe the QuitInvalid face reference ... message. What I've tried: - debug-on-error t - nothing happened - debug-on-entry to message function - nothing happened - attached advice to message function, as described at http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/DebugMessages. That also did nothing - perhaps because the message occurs in a repaint? Observations: - it's interesting that once the effect is triggered in org, then it occurs everywhere - this problem does NOT happen if I switch back to org 7.9.3f. - if I don't use org from ELPA and instead use org 8.2.6 in a site-lisp directory, the problem still happens Any ideas? - George

Dear George,
unfortunately I am not able to reproduce this issue.
Sorry about this.
Thanks for trying! Maybe I (or someone) will find a less-fiddly way to
reproduce these problems in the future. Meanwhile, I've been setting
priorities and efforts in column mode to avoid the intermittent
problems.
Many thanks for all your efforts with org-mode. It is a great
accomplishment, and a tremendously valuable tool.

Construct the agenda view by typing C-c a a while in buffer
master.org.
Then in the agenda, type d for daily.
In the agenda, use the up/down arrow keys to move the highlight to
the
task of interest, and press e, then use a digit to select the effort.
This example has made one thing clear to me - when I thought that
setting the effort was not working, it was actually CHANGING THE
EFFORT
FOR A DIFFERENT TASK. The problem is usually observable when setting
the effort in the last three tasks in the agenda, the ones from
the recurring.org file, though sometimes (I think) those have worked
correctly. The effort change for these last three tasks, when wrong,
will always be to one of the other tasks in recurring.org.
I hope this is sufficient.
An oddity in this example is that typing e also opens a second window
in the frame (like when spacebar is typed). Don't recall having seen
this happen before.
The priority setting problem is also observable, but one time only!
On
my first priority setting attempt with these files, I typed the comma
while the first item in recurring was highlighted and got the:
org-agenda-priority: Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil
All further attempts worked properly. Strange.

from before, as I changed to customizied low and default priority

Re: [Orgmode] bug? - can't set effort from agenda
Another wrinkle on this, related to the priority change (A-Z). If I try to set the priority in the agenda by typing a comma, and then entering the (capital) priority letter at the prompt Priority A-Z, SPC to remove: then I get: org-agenda-priority: Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil HOWEVER, repeating the comma entry and priority entry again is successful. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Running org 7.01h and emacs 23.2.1 on windows XP. Typing e on a task in the daily agenda goes through the steps of setting the effort, but the change is NOT made in the original org buffer.

The letter priority is multiplied by 10 and then the number priority is added on. Thus a priority string of [#B]+5 is higher than [#B] which is higher than [#B]-2 and all are lower than [#A]. The number sub-priorities allow finer control of sorting in org agendas. This *could* help with what I would like to see. Every day I would like to arrange my agenda tasks for the day in the order that I would like to do them. (Setting fake times-of-day for each is somewhat time consuming; I am now experimenting with an A-Z priority range. The real-world priority of my tasks is basically all the same, so I thought I could commandeer the priority setting to get sequencing.)

Same problem setting effort in the agenda though: byte-code: Before first headline at position 203 in buffer master.org Position 203 is now the beginning of the blank line after my other #+ lines and before the first headline.

Re: [Orgmode] Org-mode version 6.30e; Error in post-command-hook
Thanks! Copied in org-install from 6.30e and that did the trick.
So I can now confirm that this post-command-hook error bug is
fixed.
Maybe the situation with org-install should be in the FAQ somewhere
where the use of the development version is discussed. Just a thought.

tried the zip file corresponding to the fix, and also tried the

Make org-install by running make autoloads or copy it
from the latest full release.

[Orgmode] column view bug
Running org 6.30e and emacs 22.3.1. Running under fully updated
Windows XP.
Summary: in column view of a weekly agenda, the rows showing the
days in the week are positioned differently depending on whether
or not there is any item for the day.
For a test file (see below), this is what I see in column view
for the weekly agenda. (You'll need a fixed-width font to view it
properly).
CATE | ITEM| E | P | A |
Week-agenda (W37-W38):
Sunday 13 September 2009
Monday 14 September 2009 W38
| Tuesday15 September 2009| . | | |
Test | TODO task 1 | | | |
Wednesday 16 September 2009
| Thursday 17 September 2009| . | | |
Test | TODO task 2 | | | |
Friday 18 September 2009
Saturday 19 September 2009
Note the alignment difference between Tuesday and Thursday and
the other dates.
Note also I am including the CATEGORY in the display, via:
(org-columns-default-format %CATEGORY %35ITEM %Effort{:} %PRIORITY
%ALLTAGS)
The problem is *NOT* VISIBLE if the %CATEGORY is removed, so one
MUST include it to view the problem.
This is probably not a issue with a normal agenda, in which there
are tasks to do every day. I actually discovered this problem using
a custom view, intended to show only appointments for the week. But
the test file shows that the problem can be seen even without
a custom agenda.
By the way, I couldn't show it in this posting, but the Tuesday and
Thursday lines, along with their TODO items, have a light grey
background, whereas everything else has a white background. This
shading problem is odd in appearance, and it happens WHETHER OR NOT
%CATEGORY is use, and so would be a separate, but related, fix.
Here's the test .org file I used:
#+STARTUP: odd
#+STARTUP: hidestars
#+STARTUP: logdone
#+SEQ_TODO: TODO NEXT PENDING | DONE(d!) CANCELLED(c@)
#+CATEGORY: Test
* Test
*** TODO task 1
SCHEDULED: 2009-09-15 Tue
*** TODO task 2
SCHEDULED: 2009-09-17 Thu
===
To display the result shown at the top of this message, I open
the test.org file in emacs, then type:
C-a a
Then in the resulting agenda window, switch to weekly if not
already, and get column mode with
C-c C-x C-c

My impression of the block agenda is that it creates its own display, rather than allowing one to create a filtered weekly agenda. Have I got this wrong? By the way, in the org mode manual, under Custom agenda views, we have a section entitled 10.3.3 Matching tags and properties.

Re: [Orgmode] filtering the weekly agenda
OK, I now have a way to do this. I searched this list again with different search terms and found a posting that I had not seen before. This gave me the idea of using a second org file, into which I would put my recurring tasks. I've now done this, and after customizing org-global-properties (for effort) and org-columns-default-format (to show effort), all seems to be working as I wanted. (I had previously used in-file definitions of these, but that did not work across two org files.) ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] filtering the weekly agenda
I have been using org mode to great effect for a couple of months now but there is one thing I have not been able to figure out how to do - filtering what is shown in the weekly agenda. Naturally, when I'm DOING the tasks, I need to see everything scheduled for the day. My problem is when I am SCHEDULING tasks for the week. The weekly agenda shows me way more than I need to see when scheduling. My specific problem arises because every day I have a whole bunch of recurring tasks, each typically 10-20 minutes of effort. After these, I generally have four hours per day available for tasks related to my big projects. Unfortunately, the recurring tasks all appear in the weekly agenda, making it a nuisance to find the days which are still available for scheduling the big project tasks. But I have not been able to figure out how to suppress the recurring task clutter in the weekly agenda view. I can see several possible approaches to filtering out the recurring tasks (if such filtering is even possible in the weekly agenda): 1. somehow use the fact that the task has a repeater 2. use the category - right now the tasks are all in a Recurring category 3. mark each with a recurring tag and use that 4. put the recurring in a different org file (I currently use just one org file) By the way - when scheduling, I use a view of my org file in one emacs frame and the weekly agenda (in column view, so I can see the efforts) in a second frame. Any advice appreciated! ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode
