Re: [O] Bug: Displaying timeline for .org-file and then switching to including inactive timestamps will not include old and future inactive timestamps [8.3.1 (8.3.1-16-gf6aa53-elpa @ /Users/cube/.emac

2015-08-24 Thread Jakub Szypulka
Hello Nicolas,

thank you for the quick reply.

In that case, using agenda view, how can I display all timestamps in a buffer 
when the oldest and newest are a long time apart?
Must I define a custom agenda view first? (e.g. to encompass a large time frame 
and hide empty days)

Regards
Jakub

 Expected result: the timeline will include all inactive timestamps,
 including past and future ones.

 Actual result: the timeline will only include inactive timestamps for today,
 but not past or future ones.

 It seems correct. According to manual:

   ‘v [  or short  [ (org-agenda-manipulate-query-add)’
Include inactive timestamps into the current view.

 Current view here is today.

 Furthermore, it will not allow the user to execute any
 date-changing shortcuts such as b or f.

 There are many advertised limitations to Timeline feature. Actually,
 Timeline feature is moribund[fn:1][fn:2]. Use Agenda view instead.

I think so. You can try setting `org-agenda-span' to a large number.
