What would you advice? > Not using ktimetracker at the moment, but I've used it in the past. Just some user comments, then. To me, "revert" implies cancelling everything out - setting to 0. A user needs either to stop - implying a fresh start later - or to pause - - implying that the time is saved, and continues to update when the pause button is clicked again (or a separate resume button if you prefer). I hope these thoughts are useful to you. I suspect that you are actually thinking much the same way, but using terminology that I think could confuse. Good luck.
