Hey folks, I'm happy to announce the availability of MobileOrg 0.5.4 for
Android.

You can find links and instructions on how to install it on the wiki page:
https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/wiki

There is now also a donate version available in the Android Market.

Here are some of the highlights:

* Support for Gingerbread and Honeycomb tablets
* Vastly improved Dropbox and WebDAV download speed
* New Advanced Capture and Edit interface
* Now can set TODO and PRIORITY from the Advanced capture interface
* The ability to edit the body of existing notes
* Fixes for many crashes, hangs, and force-closes
* New notes are captured under the "New Notes" section,
  edits are hidden from this view
* Improved error handling and reporting
* Fix crashes if the sdcard is unavailable to the application

As always, please let me know if you have any issues... you can email me
directly or file a bug report on Github

Hi Matthew

Thank you very much for the new version. I'm just testing the new
functions. MobileOrg will be really really good after all the new
features will be working. Nice work.

There are some issues I have detected so far (HTC Desire HD, Android
2.2.1, Dropbox-sync, completely cleaned [deleted] files before
installing):

*Changed Todo States will Not Change on the Phone*

* NEXT Some Task :HOME:

changed on the PC to

* DEFERRED Some Task :HOME:

After syncing, the phone still shows

* NEXT Some Task :HOME:

On the other hand, changing Todo states on the phone works and changes
the todo state on the PC accordingly after syncing.

*TAGs don't seem to work*

Adding a new task with the Advanced Capture feature doesn't recognize
tags for me. A tag :HOME: is neither shown in the "New Notes" view on
the phone, nor on the PC after syncing.

*Changed body edits are lost on syncing*

* NEXT Call Somebody :PHONE:

changed on the phone to

* NEXT Call Somebody :PHONE:
  Phone number is 0154 13233

After syncing, org-pull doesn't announce a new edit. The addition is
lost on both, the phone and it never arrived on the PC.

After I have written the above I made some more tests and it becomes
clear now that there is a serious syncing bug. In general, syncing
doesn't recognize changes made on the PC. Even adding a new task (or a
new test in the body, or a todo change) on the PC is not recognized by
the phone after pushing and syncing.

I'm sure it will be a small problem due to the changes made necessary by
the new features. I'm not sure if this is a problem caused by my setup.
Can anybody confirm these problems?

Greetings and thank you very much again,

Sven

Row formula in orgtbl mode

[Michael Bach]

Dear org-mode Users,

Given this table

|               |    a |    b |    c |    d |
| Specific cost |    1 |    9 |    2 |    3 |
| System size   | 1000 | 1000 | 1000 | 1000 |
|               |      |      |      |      |
| ...           |  ... |  ... |  ... |  ... |
#+TBLFM: @4=@2*@3

I am wondering how I would need to format the #+TBLFM: line to multiply
the respective numeric values of rows 2 and 3 in row 4.  I am using org
v.7.4.  All my attempts, also trying to define ranges like
@4$2..@4$5=@-1*@-2, fail.

Thanks in advance,
Michael Bach

This is extremely bad, I had tried to thoroughly test all 3 sync
mechanisms.... I'm going to try to test this later but would you happen to
be able to capture the Logcat output?

Row formula in orgtbl mode

[Michael Bach]

# I sent this one previously by mistake in reply to a totally unrelated post, so now

Dear org-mode Users,

Given this table

Row formulas are not supported, but the new range formulas you already
tried are even more powerful:

Your range formula @4$2..@4$5=@-1*@-2 will work if you upgrade at
least to this commitdiff
http://orgmode.org/w/?p=org-mode.git;a=commitdiff;h=8237c9ae6d587a22646333e0315683675e2db538
and will deliver

| Specific cost |    1 |    9 |    2 |    3 |
| System size   | 1000 | 1000 | 1000 | 1000 |
|               | 1000 | 9000 | 2000 | 3000 |
| ...           |  ... |  ... |  ... |  ... |
#+TBLFM: @4$2..@4$5=@-1*@-2

For this application I would suggest
#+TBLFM: @4$<<..@4$>=@-1*@-2
