Subject: org-agenda-show-log, org-timeline bugs
Date: Mon, 04 Feb 2013 00:33:31 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87sj5cjx5w.fsf@priss.frightenedpiglet.com> (raw)

I tried running org-timeline on an Org file with lots of timestamped
TODO -> DONE state changes, and didn't see the matches I was expecting.
While poking around, I found two problems.

1. `org-timeline' isn't setting the text properties necessary to refresh
the timeline buffer.  This means that none of the special keys to update
the display actually work.  Here's the `org-timeline' version:

    (add-text-properties (point-min) (point-max) '(org-agenda-type timeline))

Here's the same chunk in `org-agenda-list' for comparison:

    (add-text-properties (point-min) (point-max)
                         `(org-agenda-type agenda
                           org-last-args (,arg ,start-day ,span)
                           org-redo-cmd ,org-agenda-redo-command
                           org-series-cmd ,org-cmd))

2. Even when the `org-timeline' function has refresh set up properly,
`org-agenda-log-mode' (via the `l' hotkey) doesn't work.  It looks like
the function changes the buffer-local copy of the `org-agenda-show-log'
variable, but the refresh code looks at the global version of the
variable (possibly because the refresh is happening through eval?).  In
order to see the log entries, you need to set `org-agenda-show-log'
outside of the timeline buffer (using `setq').

Can someone take a look at these?  This is all with the latest sources
from the repo.  Thanks.

Derek
