Re: Bug: clocktable :inherit-props does not respect global property setting [9.4.6 (9.4.6-12-gdcc3a8-elpa @ /home/jet/.config/emacs/elpa/org-20210823/)]

Yes, I can make it work now - but only after reloading it at least one time from disk.

When I type it in for the first time, it doesn't work. I have to save, then (revert-buffer).

In other words, in a fresh buffer, paste all the above, then hit C-c C-c on the BEGIN line.

The global properties don't work. You can save the file, and it still doesn't work. Only after

reading it from disk (either with revert-buffer or loading it for the first time) does it work.

Also, if you change the value (say, from 150 to 210) the old value persists until you

reload the file. Even saving the file doesn't help.

Do note that :inherit-props t must be on the same line with #+BEGIN

#+BEGIN: clocktable :scope file :maxlevel 2 :properties ("HOURLY_RATE") :inherit-props t
