Workrave supports two kinds of applets on Gnome:
- The notification area (system tray). Just add the notification area to
your applet. When workrave starts, it will immediately use it (if
enabled in the preferences)
- The workrave applet. Workrave always prefers this applet to the
notification area. The Workrave applet will automatically start the
Workrave application. If Workrave is not running, the applet always
shows a sheep.
Do you use the Workrave applet?

I use the workrave applet. Right now the timers are on my taskbar
correctly.<br>
I will try to use the notification area the next time it happens :)<br>
May it be happening because I maybe left too little space for the
workrave timers?<br>

When you don't see the timer: Is workrave itself running? Do you see a
white sheep in the panel? What is the output of
'bonobo-activation-run-query _active | grep -i Workrave'
</pre>

It is running. I even see the timers window if I click on the sheep.<br>
<br>
By the way, I have another question. I use two desktops, but I run a
program at full screen on the main desktop.<br>
Is it possible to configure workrave to use the GNOME panel of the
second X11 screen? It always uses the first screen's panel notification
area.<br>
<br>
By the way 2, congratulations on the workrave software development. It
is one of the nicest pieces of software I've seen in the past few
years. Very creative and useful. I recommended it to all my friends,
and they all seem to think the same :)<br>
<br>
Thank you for the attention<br>
