Re: [O] org-agenda-filter-effort and "invalid face reference"

[yanmcbe]

Wow, this issue comes very close to something I struggled for hours with (3h42') last year.

It finally boiled down to this: sorting by effort in the agenda view only works (correctly) when org-agenda-remove-tags is t. Here's the (edited) ECM I created for IRC and eventually the list: http://paste.lisp.org/+7723

Is that still expected behaviour? Lack of documentation? The updated org-agenda-compare-effort Nicolas provided doesn't solve this, at least.

Thanks

Yan

After some additional testing, I was able to isolate the problem:
org-agenda-filter-by-effort only filtered entries that had no tags or
tag inheritance.  This leads me to believe that I just don't
understand how this command, org-agenda-filter-by-effort, is actually
supposed to work.  If I have an entry like this:

* TODO task 1  :tag:
:PROPERTIES:
:Effort: 0:30
:END:

And one like this:

* TODO task 2
:PROPERTIES:
:Effort: 0:30
:END:

And I've added the org file to the agenda list and created the
appropriate org-global-properties:

(setq org-global-properties
      '(("Effort_ALL". "0 0:10 0:30 1:00 2:00 3:00 4:00")))

Shouldn't org-agenda-filter-by-effort set to = "0:30" show both of
those tasks?  In my case, I'm only seeing this one:

* TODO task 2
:PROPERTIES:
:Effort: 0:30
:END:
