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?
