Rest break timer

Thanks for this program! It makes a noticeable difference in the
eyestrain symptoms I was having.

I'm confused by the timer for the Rest Break. It counts down while the
exercises are displaying, and continues after the exercises window
goes away. However, if I click "Lock" (because I prefer to lock my
console when I step away from it), after I unlock the console, the
timer is reset to the beginning (I have it set to 3:00), and doesn't
count down any more. I usually click "Skip" to make it go away, but it
seems like it should just count 3 minutes from when it first pops up,
regardless of whether I have the screen locked. Am I missing a setting
(or a concept) somewhere?

I cleared the checkbox for "Suspend timer when inactive", but I think
that applies to the timer *between* rest breaks.

I'm using Workrave 1.8.4 on Windows XP.

Thanks,
Janet
