Hi list,
I've been having a problem where my agenda column format is ignored every other time I load or refresh the agenda, which makes it very hard to use. When this happens, I see the following error in *Messages*: "Making org-agenda-overriding-columns-format buffer-local while locally let-bound!" which led me to experiment and find that when I delete the following lines from the org-agenda-finalize function, the problem seems to be fixed:
- (if (and (boundp 'org-agenda-overriding-columns-format)
- org-agenda-overriding-columns-format)
- (org-set-local 'org-agenda-overriding-columns-format
- org-agenda-overriding-columns-format))
I'm wondering what these lines were intended to do, and if it's safe to delete them.
My org-agenda-custom-commands value is:
'(("n" "Agenda and all TODO's" ((agenda "" nil) (alltodo "" nil)) nil)
("r" "Russ Agenda" agenda ""
((org-agenda-overriding-header "Russ Agenda") (org-agenda-view-columns-initially t)
(org-agenda-overriding-columns-format "%80ITEM %TAGS %7TODO %5Effort{:} %6CLOCKSUM{Total}"))
("~/public_html/agenda.html"))
("q" "Russ Todos" alltodo ""
((org-agenda-view-columns-initially t)
(org-agenda-overriding-columns-format "%80ITEM %TAGS %7TODO %20SCHEDULED %5Effort{:} %6CLOCKSUM{Total}")
(org-agenda-skip-function (quote (org-agenda-skip-entry-if (quote todo) (quote ("DEFERRED")))))
(org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (scheduled-up effort-up))))
("~/public_html/todo.html"))
)
