[O] PROPERTY inheritance at the file level, and picking up all items

[Subhan Michael Tindall]

I’m trying to set up a buffer-wide property value for my project files.

Currently I have a level-1 header like this:

 

* project

:PROPERTIES:

:project_name: this_projects_name

:END:

 

I know this can be inherited by sub project, but I have many more level-1 headers

* level1 header

** sub header

 

I can’t seem to find a way to set up the property :project_name: to be a file-level or buffer-level property that is inherited and visible in custom agendas.

I’ve tried several variants including a level-0 property drawer and using #+PROPERTY :project_name project_name

 

 

(setq org-columns-default-format "%10CATEGORY %30ITEM %TODO %PRIORITY %20project_name %LastWorked(Last Worked On) %LastWorked(Hours Ago)address@hidden %FILE")

 

Custom agenda command:

("Z" "Last Worked skip" ((alltodo "" ((org-agenda-skip-function (lambda nil (org-agenda-skip-entry-if (quote notregexp) "\\:LastWorked\\:")))

(org-agenda-sticky nil)

(org-agenda-view-columns-initially t)  <<<this also seems to not be working

(org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (tsia-down todo-state-down)))))))

 

The Skip function works great, but unfortunately the agenda also does not pick up any headers without a  TODO state even if they match the LastWorked regexp. 

If anybody can provide some insight on either of these problems I would be much obliged!
