Hi,
on one box (emacs 24.3.1, org-mode version 7.9.3f) when I do 'C-c C-x e', i can enter an effort estimate string directly as shown in Effort_ALL property (e.g. 3w).
however on another box (emacs 24.3.1, org-mode version 8.3.3), the ' C-c C-x e' prompt me: ' Select 1-9,0, [RET]: 0 1h 2h 4h 1d 2d 3d 4d 1w 2w 3w 4w'
if i try to enter 3w, it sets the effort to 2h (the 3rd entry)
org-set-effort help describes that behavior when a numerical prefix arg is used
it's happening for me with or without a numeric prefix arg
it seems to me that without the numeric prefix, i should still be able to enter 3w
the 'nth allowed' prompt should only occur *with* the numeric prefix
effort settings:
the only effort-related setting in my .emacs file is:
(setq org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations t)
at the top of the .org file:
#+PROPERTY: Effort_ALL 0 1h 2h 4h 1d 2d 3d 4d 1w 2w 3w 4w
under the top level heading for which i want estimates:
:PROPERTIES:
:COLUMNS: %90ITEM(Task) %10Effort(Estimated Effort){:} %CLOCKSUM
:END:
