What I meant is that upon testing old revisions, empty columns were also
left over. Hence my surprise, since our experiences differ.

Thank you.

Honestly I'm curious to know how it was done. AFAICT, it entails to
compute deepest headline level across all files in scope. I don't think
there was such code.

Also, yet another customization may not be needed, as both behaviours
sounds fine to me.

I already said that I can see the utility of that in some cases, it's
just a user-visible change that I found not documented.

I'll try to make some time for that.  OTOH, if it's just a matter of
implementing another customization option and code to pick up on that,
we may not even need to know when it changed.

I'm a bit surprised that was the case. When fixing the clocktable,
I also wondered what was the expected behaviour in that case, did some
quick tests and came to the conclusion empty columns were fine.

Would you mind doing the bisecting part and providing an ECM?

Thank you.

So the behaviour that whatever :maxlevel is set to becomes the number of
columns even when the rightmost columns are empty is now considered a
feature?  I haven't tried to bisect for when that changed, but empty
columns used to be dropped from the table.  I can see the new behaviour
useful sometimes, but the old one wasn't unreasonable either.  Is there
an option that I may have missed?

[O] Clocktable creates superfluous columns

[Stefan Nobis]

Hi.

In version 9.0.5 Org (Emacs 25.1) seems to generate too many columns
in some situations. I'm not quite sure since which version this
happens, in Org 8.x I have not seen this behaviour.

Here is a small example:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
#+BEGIN: clocktable :maxlevel 3 :scope file :narrow 80! :compact
#+CAPTION: Clock summary at [2017-02-18 Sat 12:37], for February 2017.
| Headline  |   Time |   |   |
|---++---+---|
| *Total time*  | *0:15* |   |   |
|---++---+---|
| Some Tasks|   0:15 |   |   |
| \_  STARTED Task1 |   0:15 |   |   |
#+END:

* Some Tasks
** STARTED Task1
   :CLOCK:
   CLOCK: [2017-02-18 Sat 12:00]--[2017-02-18 Sat 12:15] =>  0:15
   :END:
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

It seems that the iteration over the items generates to many "|". And
top level headlines (e.g. "Some Tasks") each generate one more "|"
than their children (but even those seem to generate to many "|").

I did not fully understand the function org-clocktable-write-default,
so I'm not quite sure how to best fix this.
