No

I chose 5 minutes, but then replaced the 5 with a 1, but the snooze still lasted for 5 minutes.
I think it would be nice if the snooze just had a dropdown for minutes/hours/days/weeks and a separate dropdown for numbers that could also be entered by typing.
If this is done right, it would allow typing a number and then hitting tab to highlight the minutes/hours/days/weeks dropdown and then typing the first letter should automatically select the appropriate part of the dropdown menu.

Also side note: the checkbox to make the new snooze time default should remember it's last setting. If I have that unchecked, it should stay unchecked in the future.

    also, a more clear option for "dismiss" should be available in snooze. In other words, a close button that does not cause a snooze. A button which turns off the reminder without completing the task.

    Umm, about that last uncessary comment: I just meant that "don't snooze" should be a button at the bottom instead of an option within the time selection.

    Hi Aaron,

    The bug was that the combobox was not readonly. Fixed that.

    Allowing for typed in snooze times would be a feature request. Removing the OK button and replacing it with a "Close and snooze" button and a "Close without snoozing" button would also be a (separate) feature request. Please add them to UserVoice if you haven't already; both are good ideas.

    Thanks, Frank
