So this is my first post and I want to thank you all making this free software! Now I have several org files and I sometimes want to attach date or datetime properties to a headline. So I type C-c C-x p and answer the minibuffer. For a date/time value I'd like to use the nice input method (I think provided by `org-read-date') but I cannot figure out how to enable it when adding properties this way. Is this possible or should I add the PROPERTIES drawer first and then use C-c ! to add date value? Also, how can I instruct org to update the date value of a property? (If I hit C-c C-c inside the property drawer the property action menu appears.) kind regards Eike
