Hello friends,

either I misunderstood something or I stumbled upon a bug.

Situation: I have a heading with some files attached. This heading has
an ID property, upon which the directory for those files is based.

There's also a subheading with no ID. Inside of that subheading I'd like
to link to one of the attached files. But although
org-attach-use-inheritance is non-nil, the attachment is not found from
inside that subheading.

Shouldn't it be found?

Thanks for any pointers,

Julius


#+name main.org
#+begin_src org
,* first heading :ATTACH:
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: 7eai57u0npi0
:END:

[[attachment:some-file.txt]]

,** subheading
(no ID property here)

[[attachment:some-file.txt]]
#+end_src


#+name some-file.txt
#+begin_src text
Just some junk to verify whether the correct file is displayed.
#+end_src

I tried your example and the file is found for both links.

What is the exact value of `org-attach-use-inheritance' (t or 'selective)?

If 'selective, what is the value of `org-use-property-inheritance'?

Can you provide a reproducible recipe with a minimal configuration?

Thanks,

I have run into this issue myself, my solution for this ended up being
a quick hack to toggle this inheritence so that subheadings could reach
into superheadings when referencing the same attachments.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp

(defun org-attach-switch-inheritence ()
  "Allows for Subtrees to have their own distinct attach directories"
  (interactive)

  (if (member "ID" org-use-property-inheritance)
      (progn
        (setq org-use-property-inheritance
    	  (delete "ID" org-use-property-inheritance)
    	  )
        (message "ID Inheritance Disabled")
        )
    (add-to-list 'org-use-property-inheritance "ID")
    (message "ID Inheritance Enabled")
    )
  )

;; keybinding for C-c C-A
(local-set-key [3 33554433] 'org-attach-switch-inheritence)

#+END_SRC

                    ^^^^^^

Sorry for calling in from the peanut gallery... the conventional
term for that kind of thing seems to be "toggle", not "switch",
right?

Anyway, thanks for making Org better :-)

Cheers

Can you provide a reproducible recipe?  

Perhaps I am missing something obvious, but I don't have the problem
reported by the OP.
