Re: Feature request: Lunch breaks

Well, what differentiates the timers from each other are:


·         Enabled?

·         Name

·         Icon

·         Time between breaks

·         Break duration

·         Postpone time

·         prompt before breaking?

·         maximum number of prompts

·         Show postpone and skip button?

·         Start rest break when screen is locked?

·         Number of exercises

·         regard micro breaks as activity?

With that one could define a data class.

What I don't know is, If there are any special cases in the source regarding the current three types of timers.

Another point is, that not all of the above fields apply to all possible types of timers, so one probably needs another field specifying the Type with the program doing things differently according to that type (e.g. display different GUI controls, hide some fields, etc.).

However this sounds like requiring a complete rewrite of the base parts of workrave and would result in workrave 2.0 or something...

what we need is profiles or setups.

sometimes one needs different profiles for different occasions and activities like work, home , watching videos, reading, kids, etc.

Hi!
I think it would be a great idea to have the possibility to have a fourth timer for the lunch break.
At the moment I'm trying to missuse some features and use the "microbreak" timer to remind me to have a lunch break. However this means that I can't use the "microbreak" timer for it's intened purpose and I don't yet know if this has any other side effects.

What do you think of that proposal?

Best regards

Michael Fassl
