Hi Everyone,
On the agenda screen, if I try to mark (using transient mark mode) and
select to the end of the line, it doesn't let me select the last character
on the line. If I select to the end of the line with a mouse, it works fine.
So to reproduce, 1) control-space 2) move cursor to end of line. It does not
select last character. It works fine in the regular org-mode and everywhere
else, but not in the weekly agenda view.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Ted

Hi Ted, this is correct, the agenda does not allow to position the
cursor
at the end of the line because of technical reasons. So you need to
work around this problem, for example by tripple-clicking the line
with the mouse, or by selecting to the beginning of the next line with
C-SPC down.

a space after the item title would work as well. I don't know what
causes this limitation, but as a quick and dirty workaround can't you
add automatically a space at the end of the string when rendering the
agenda ?

The reason for this limitation is that many functions rely on text
properties,
and I don't want to put some of those properties on the newline. To
be honest,
I don't exactly remember why, but I *do* remember that there were
problems.
An extra space sounds like a promising solution, I'll look into it.
Thanks.
