I have the same "problem" with column view and repeated items, but I never found time to locate where all this column mode trickery happens, especially because I think all that overlay stuff is way out of my league ... I personally just ignore the clock total in my daily agenda and focus on the effort column. But every time I clock a task in, there is this nice reminder in the modeline which tells me: Hey, org *knows* already the necessary number, its figured out someplace and put right there in my modeline: Having that in agenda-daily column view would be cool, but as I said, no time and probably too hard for me... Memnon P.S.: Tired as hell, I hope what I wrote makes any sense at all and there are not too many typos ... Its almost 05am here.
