Hello,
All of a sudden, changing the TODO status (=org-todo=) from anything to
WAIT is failing with:
: Error in post-command-hook (org-add-log-note): (error "Can't expand minibuffer to full frame")
and ends up asking for a date and time and inserts new SCHEDULED
information. My TODO sequence is:
: org-todo-keywords '((sequence "TODO(t)" "INPR(i@/!)" "WAIT(w@/!)" "|" "DONE(d@/!)" "XXXX(x@)" "POST(p!)"))
I have the following hook defined:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-hook 'org-after-todo-state-change-hook
'(lambda ()
;; remove the scheduled date/time if present as the activity is no longer mine
;; based on a suggestion by Manish on the org-mode mailing list
(if (string= org-state "WAIT") (org-schedule t))))
#+end_src
This used to work in that it would remove any SCHEDULED entry in the
item. Now not only does it not remove the SCHEDULED information, it
prompts for a date+time after the error message above. No log note is
requested. It also seems to delete some text after the logbook drawer
in some cases.
I simply do not understand what is happening! With emacs -Q and only
the two settings above (i.e. not the rest of my org customisation), the
problem arises. If I don't have the hook, there is no
problem. Attached is my simple test file. The log notes indicated I
was successful in changing from TODO to WAIT before I defined the
hook. I then switched to TODO and tried to then switch back to
WAIT. The logging of the latter failed.
I note that nothing appears to have changed in org-schedule recently.
Any suggestions (other than remove the hook ;-)?
Thanks,
eric

SCHEDULED: <2013-03-01 Fri>
- State "TODO" from "WAIT" [2013-03-01 Fri 14:41]
- State "WAIT" from "TODO" [2013-03-01 Fri 14:41] \\
this works as I do not have the hook defined
Something I need to do.

You need to use (org-schedule '(4)) here, this is part of a change
in master that allows to use C-u C-u C-c C-s to add a delay (and
same for C-u C-u C-c C-d which adds a warning delay.)

HTH!

It does indeed! I did read the description of org-schedule to remind
myself of why I had what I did there but I kind of skimmed over the
"universal argument" bit... <blush>
However, I would suggest that a more graceful exit might be good? I
still do not understand why the log message wasn't prompted for.
Anyway, thanks: my setup is working again as it should!

I find the use of C-u C-u C-c C-d full of promise, but not yet there:
I do C-c C-d and set a deadline on Fri 8 of March.
I do C-u C-u C-d C-d and S-Left twice: in the agenda, I see the date moving to
the 27 of Feb, 2 days before today; but the warning will be applied starting 2
days (the count is right) before the 8 of March.
I think we should see the 8 of March as reference date for fixing the start
date (or length, depending on how we see it) of the warning delay.
It's even more weird if we S-Right from the current date: it seems that the
difference in days is taken in absolute value, but I'm not even sure of that.
Is it possible to put the reference date correctly when we call C-u C-u C-c
C-d?
Best regards,
Seb
