Subject: [bug?] Computations on efforts expressed in days
Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2012 16:36:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <80ipgy77d4.fsf@somewhere.org> (raw)

Hello,

I want to compute efforts given in days. As explained by the doc of
`org-effort-durations', we must add a =d= modifier to tell Org that given numbers
must be multiplied by 480 (in the case of hours) to get the correct number of
corresponding minutes.

I did that, but (as shown in the following inlined ECM):

- the computed total for task A is interpreted as hours (4.5 days becomes
  4 hours 30 minutes).

- the grand computed total for all tasks becomes completely wrong (4:38
  instead of 4.5 + 0.125 = 4.625 days).

Am I doing something wrong, or forgetting something?

Best regards,
  Seb
