The first time it works ok until the first micro-break. After it, it begins to behave as in no reading mode, resetting the timers whenever I don't move the mouse or I don't type. When I notice it's happening, I uncheck and check again the Reading mode. Then it works ok until the next microbreak, so I have to check it after every microbreak that timers are not resetting. I read in the list the other users are having same problem. My config: * Workrave 1.9.3 * Windows XP * Microbreak: 30 seconds every 20 minutes * Restbreak: 5 minutes every two hours I'm using Workrave in Ubuntu 10.04 as well and it works flawlessly there.

I'm just a little confused by a few of the preferences settings and I was hoping you could help. Prompt before breaking is the 30 seconds dialogue that lets you know a rest break is due. What is the function/reason for maximum number of prompts? Can you set the maximum number of postpones? Some similar programs grey out the postpone button after a set amount of postpones. What does "cycle time" do - in the status window/applet preferences?

You can just continue typing and the prompt automatically postpones.
