The following shows the sum of Tasks 1/2/3 as "1d 00:00" in column view, which is correct as this reflects the actual number of hours of effort (8 hours a day). My question is, can this be displayed assuming 'n' hours of effort a day and shown in days? So the sum of Effort in this case would be displayed as "3d". * Test :PROPERTIES: :ID: Tasks :COLUMNS: %ITEM %17Effort(Effort){:} :END: ** Task 1 :PROPERTIES: :Effort: 1d :END: ** Task 2 :PROPERTIES: :Effort: 1d :END: ** Task 3 :PROPERTIES: :Effort: 1d :END:
