Search

You can search a single issue by entering code, or do a text search. To search you simply have to type your search and press Return, the issues will be listed in the "Issue list".

Filter

In the filter combobox, you will find your saved filters, and a predefined filter " Latest " with the latest issues you have working on (on Log4day), in the last 7 days.
Selecting a filter will show the issues in the "Issue list".

Issue list

Selecting a issue, it will be showed in the "Selected issue" section.
Double clicking on it will show it on the browser, connecting to remote JIRA.
The columns are:

• Updated: it shows icons for newly created issues or updated ones
• Priority
• Start button: eventually stops a running log and start a new lsog with the seleted issue
• Bookmark button: add a bookmark to the selected issue and show it in the bookmark section
• Call button: it is used to log an interruption to the running log. It shows the call dialog:
  
  you must specify, at least, an issue (by default the selected one), a duration (see Convenctions), then the running log is stopped, with stop time as the current time minus duration, a new log with the call is added, with the duration you have specified, and the previous log is restarted.
• Copy button: copy the selected issue code into the clipboard

Worklog tree

• Delete: applies only to logs not committed to the remote JIRA repository (uncommitted)
• Edit: applies only to uncommitted logs
• Restart: is the same as starting a new log with the selected issue

  Multiple selection is allowed.
• Remove work done: applies only to committed logs, it removes your work log from the remote JIRA repository
  Multiple selection is allowed.
• Set running: applies only to uncommitted, closed log if it's the last. It removes duration and sets the log as running

Right clicking on a day you can:

• Log work done: applies only to uncommitted, closed (not running) logs. It registers your work log to the remote JIRA repository. (from version 0.1.2)

  • Locale: at the present time is only used to format dates and days
