Tracking tasks
In the timer, your active projects are displayed in bold. Under each project there are its tasks.
Today's tasks are black and past tasks are gray. Currently running task is displayed green.
By clicking different objects in the timer, different actions will be fired:
- project name - a new task will be created under this project and with today's date;
- today's task - timer will continue tracking that specific task;
- past task - a new task with the same name and under the same project will be created.
There is a button to start/stop it, to toggle its billing options, change the duration or description.
-
Editing tasks
If you click the "Edit" link on the current tasks panel, an edit task form will appear:
As you can see, there is a possibility to change everything (besides the project) about this task and also delete it.
- Deleting tasks You can delete a task when you click the current tasks "Edit" link. See the picture above.
-
Recurring tasks
When clicking on the past task (displayed gray):
...it will make a new task under the same project and with the same name. You can set the amount of days past tasks appear in the timer. Click "My Settings" and select a suitable option.
-
Search bar
To find a project/task quickly from the timer list, just write some part of project's/task's name into the search bar and the timer will show you only those projects/tasks which match the search criteria.
-
Adding past tasks
You can add a past task from the timer by just changing its date. There is also a "Tasks" page, where you can add tasks, which you didn't track with the timer, more easily and quickly.
-
More helpful features
There is a "Show today's tasks"/"Show all tasks" toggle link on the right side that will show you only today's or all tasks.
The "Calculate" feature on task edit form is useful if you know your task's start and stop times but would like to set the duration fast. Just click on it:
You can use a keyboard shortcut - ALT+T - for starting/stopping (toggling) your current task.
