Re: [O] Basic Q: Display specific property in custom agenda view

[Nathan Neff]

Got it!  Now, all I need to do is add the cool ":" functionality

where a ":" is appended to the result if there is a result :-)  

Using %-12:(njn-get-proj-property)

doesn't work like %-12:c :-(

;; Return PROJ property or category property

(defun njn-get-proj-property()

  (or (org-entry-get (point) "PROJ" t) 

      (org-get-category)))

  (setq org-agenda-custom-commands

     '(

     ("A" agenda "" (

        (org-agenda-span 'day)

          (org-agenda-prefix-format " %-12(njn-get-proj-property) %?-12t% s")

         (org-agenda-include-inactive-timestamps nil)))

Hello all,

My apologies for not finding this in the docs, but I'm trying to define a 

simple custom agenda view that is exactly the same as the default day week view,

except the only difference is displaying a property called FOO instead of the CATEGORY

property.

I found an example here:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2016-04/msg00402.html

Thanks,

I think it's simply a matter of setting org-agenda-prefix-format to something

other than the default:  " %i %-12:c%?-12t% s" but I can't find the exact function to call

in place of %i.  I would think there's something like %(get-property-of-heading(FOO))

Thanks for any advice
