Re: Re: Using column view on a sparse tree displaying only a few tags.

[Carsten Dominik <C.Dominik@uva.nl>]

This is no regression.  In the agenda, org will use the format  
applicable to the first item, since it has to use the same for all  
lines.  If that first item is from a file that has no columns format,  
it will use the default.  Just set the default format and not the file- 
local ones.
