Hi All,
I have the LOCATION property set for a few appointments in my org files.
When I look at the agenda, I sometimes want to be able to view the location
of an appointment quickly. Right now I hit TAB on the agenda item (to go to
its original location in the org file) and open the :PROPERTIES: drawer to
view the LOCATION property.
Is there any way I can quickly look-up an item's propert(y/ies) in the
agenda view? I know one option would be to set up a column view for the
agenda. However, this requires that I know the properties I want to view
beforehand. Any ideas/suggestions are appreciated.
Thank you.

Hackish but works:
(defun my-org-agenda-view-item-properties ()
"Display the properties of the item at point in the agenda."
(interactive)
(let ((m (get-text-property (point) 'org-hd-marker)) pp)
(with-current-buffer (marker-buffer m)
(goto-char m)
(while (re-search-forward
org-property-re
(save-excursion (org-end-of-subtree)) t)
(push (concat (match-string 2) ": " (match-string 3)) pp)))
(delete-other-windows)
(pop-to-buffer "*org properties*")
(erase-buffer)
(mapcar (lambda(p) (insert p "\n")) pp)
(org-fit-window-to-buffer)
(other-window 1)))
HTH,
