Thanks for this!
I've seen your comments on the time cookie thread. But I will pull the
org-clock-display comments here.
So, I have your changes locally, and I have a few comments.
A folded node looks like this:
* Node........................................ 02:10 ...
I was wondering if the "........................................" bit can
be hidden. Is there a font face to customise for this? I find it
distracting, especially with a big list of folded nodes.
The only problem then is: how do I match the times up with the nodes. I
guess this is the problem I was trying to solve with the clock cookies.
One option would be to highlight the time with a new face when the point is
on a node. Not sure about this though.
If the above is possible, then would it be possible to move that "..."
(after the clock total) to the left-hand side, so that it looks like this:
* Node... 02:10
i.e. What it normally looks like. Only with a "02:10" on the right hand
side.
The only other thing I'd want to change is the alignment of the times.
So right now, we have:
2d 18:10
7:30
11:32
(For instance.)
It would be great if these could be aligned so that:
- The ":" ran down the middle (single column)
- The hours were zero padded, so it was "07" and not "7"
- There was some padding for days
i.e. If there are no days, you add the space necessary so that the clock
time aligns with other nodes that have days.
Not sure how to calculate this. Perhaps it's possible to calculate the max
clock value before display, and pad everything to the width of that.
One radical alternative to all of the above:
Remove the "..................." stuff. Don't align the times. Just stick
them right after the node text, like a cookie.
As I say: I am more than happy to actually work on the patches necessary to
make these changes
