Hi all,
How might I adjust the agenda view so that as well as displaying the
dates and names of entries, some property / properties of my choosing
are displayed? For instance, I have entries with a "LOCATION" property,
and would like to see that in the agenda view.
Cheers,
Toby

This can be done with custom agenda commands using tables. Something like
this should work:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("1" . "Custom sorted tables")
("1t" agenda "Tasks agenda table (active only)"
((org-agenda-skip-function
'(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'nottodo '("TODO" "WAITING" "CANCELLED"
"DELEGATED" "DONE")))
(org-agenda-overriding-columns-format "%75ITEM %20DEADLINE
%100Location")
(org-agenda-view-columns-initially t))))
This works with tasks that have the following format:
* TODO Go Grocery Shopping
DEADLINE: <2014-11-04 Tue>
:PROPERTIES:
:Location: Trader Joe's
:END:
The above example is for sorted agenda. This can also be accomplished for
unsorted task lists.

Thanks very much -- I'll have a play with that.

You can use a column view (C-c C-x C-c) from within the agenda
view. You can customise what is presented in this column view by
(setq org-agenda-overriding-columns-format
"%5TODO %TIMESTAMP %40ITEM %LOCATION %TAGS")
for instance. Not quite what you wanted, mind you...

Don't worry, this is also helpful.
Thanks!
