Viewing estimates in an Iteration Plan

Is there a way to view the estimates associated with the work items for each story in an Iteration Plan? I want to see both estimates for tasks and the sum of these estimates for each story. Right now I can only see estimates for Enhancements and Defects. 'Story' is the only Top Level Plan Item Type.

Right, top level types do not show estimates but complexity, e.g. story
point. Still, there a plan column called Progress. It will show progress
based on the children of a story, e.g 7/14h which means that 7 out of a
total of 14h of work are done.

But why can't I see the estimates for tasks nested under the Stories? I need to provide a "report" of our top stories along with their estimates.

If you want to see the individual estimates of the nested tasks you can
add the corresponding column to the plan. I added a screen capture of
how to edit a view mode to show progress and estimates.
