[Workrave-user] Handling rests

[Dieter E. <Die...@de...>]

Hello

I'm using workrave for some years, now with the newest version 1.9.1.
It's a great tool.

But I'm missing an improvement in this situations:

Let's say I have a rest, come back to the pc and continue working.
Then sometimes I get a workrave message to have a micropause or a
normal break. The timer was stopped while my rest, but not resetted.
Therefore when I came back it continued to count further at the point
before my break. That is a bit annoying to me.

Better would be: If I have a rest the timers (micropause and usual
pause) of workrave not only stops counting, but (after some time) it
will be resetted to 0. So when I continue working all timers will
start counting again with 0.

Also it would be great, if it is possible to define regular rests in
workrave. This means for example I define a rest starting each day at
12:00 until 12:30, and another regular rest from 09:00 until 09:15. In
this way I don't miss these rests while I'm working.

Third improvement: The buttons to ignore a workrave pause could be a
bit hidden. The buttons will not appear in the popup window but only
in the context menu of workrave in the system tray. So you have to
search them, and no longer you can click it away without thinking
about.

Dieter
