Property inheritance does not seem to work when running C-c C-x C-c
(org-columns).
Reproduction recipe:
1. Start emacs with "emacs -Q"
2. Evaluate the following to enable property inheritance, and to define
custom columns that include the value of the "PROJECT" property.
(setq org-columns-default-format
"%CATEGORY %15PROJECT(Project) %55ITEM(Task)")
(setq org-use-property-inheritance t)
3. Load the following in to an org-mode buffer.
* TODO Test
:PROPERTIES:
:CATEGORY: Cat. Name
:PROJECT: Proj. Name
:END:
** TODO A subtask
This is a subtask
** TODO Another subtask
This is another subtask
4. Run C-c C-x C-c in the buffer to enable org-columns.
Expected result:
A buffer that looks something like:
CATEGORY | Project | Task
Cat. Name | Proj. Name | * TODO Test
Cat. Name | Proj. Name | ** TODO A subtask
Cat. Name | Proj. Name | ** TODO Another subtask
Actual result:
A buffer where the "PROJECT" property has not been inherited, and looks
like this:
CATEGORY | Project | Task
Cat. Name | Proj. Name | * TODO Test
Cat. Name | | ** TODO A subtask
Cat. Name | | ** TODO Another subtask
Inspecting the value of the variable org-columns-default-format with
M-x show-variable tells me:
org-columns-default-format's value is
"%CATEGORY %15PROJECT(Project) %55ITEM(Task)"
Original value was
"%25ITEM %TODO %3PRIORITY %TAGS"
I can also reproduce this on org-mode from the Git repository
(reproduced with 1a7364177046...) and it's also noted on
Emacs : GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.10.7)
