Hello,

something has changed in column view (C-c C-x C-c, org-columns) that
stops me being able to see values of non-special properties.  With the
attached org file, I get the view shown in the image, also
attached.  You can see that nothing is shown for the "myproperty"
property despite both headlines having this property specified.

This is with emacs -Q and with org from the repository as of a few
minutes ago.

Can anybody point me in the right direction to get this working again?

Thanks.

This should be fixed. Thank you for reporting it.

Try to write 'myproperty' in capital letters as 'MYPROPERTY'.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I am not sure if properties are case
sensitive or not.  I have always used lower case for many of my
properties and things have always worked fine.  In any case, I didn't
get a chance to try this suggestion as Nicolas has already fixed it!

Thanks again,
eric

"User-defined properties are capitalized", see
http://orgmode.org/manual/Conventions.html.

Yes he has fixed my problem as well :-).  But shame on me that I didn't
report it.

I had a very similar problem with capitalized (like ':Price:') property
keys.  I have not been able to reproduce it with 'emacs -Q', so there
must have been an interdependence with my setup.  Finally my workaround
was to change my keys to all capitals.  Nicolas' latest change has cured
my problem as well.

Thank you Nicolas!

A convention is not a requirement, is it?  I hate typing upper case
letters...

You're right; it isn't.

So, either the feature should be disregarded, or become official;
I agree.

Best regards,

And reading the page again, it is entitled "Typesetting conventions used
in this manual" so it's more about writing a manual than about what org
supports!
