Hi fellows,
got the following bug report[1] from a Debian user:
We have the <2012-12-23 Sun>. I have in my TODO.org file the entries
***** TODO reference entry
SCHEDULED: <2012-12-22 Sat>
***** TODO test entry +
SCHEDULED: <2012-12-19 Wed +2d>
***** TODO test entry ++
SCHEDULED: <2012-12-19 Wed ++2d>
***** TODO test entry .+
SCHEDULED: <2012-12-19 Wed .+2d>
When I type 'Ctrl-c a a' the agenda view gets created (with the
default sorting settings) as follows:
TODO: Sched. 2x: TODO reference entry
TODO: Scheduled: TODO test entry +
TODO: Scheduled: TODO test entry ++
TODO: Scheduled: TODO test entry .+
This is not the result I expect. The test entries are scheduled 3
days more in the past than the reference entry. Thus, I would expect
them to come first with 'Sched. 5x:' in front. I understand that due
to the repeats, the test entries virtually appear also on the 21st and
23rd, and that's why it is sorted that way. The sorting takes the
last virtual appearance rather than the one real appearance. But that
means, that entries that I should work on every second day never makes
it to the top of the priority list, which renders the priority list in
the agenda view useless, I think. When I work on one of the test
entries and cycle through TODO-DONE-TODO, the SCHEDULED date is
automatically incremented and only then should the entry appear later
in the list. This is the most reasonable behavior, I think. However,
since there seem different oppinions on that issue possible, it would
be great to have at least an option that would allow to pick the one
or the other behavior.
(Please note that he is still using version 7.01g). I'll point the user
to this thread so he can tell us more if need be.
Cheers,
--Seb
