In the next release.. Feb 10 2010 - 20:02
I added some basic Copy/Cut/Paste capability. This is a first implementation, it is not possible to select the text with your mouse. For example, if you want to copy a task description from your ActivityInventory page and paste it to the ToDo sheet, do the following 2 steps: Step 1 - go to the ActivityInventory page, just click on the line to be copied - please note, you DON'T HAVE TO SELECT the line - and then press 'Control+C' (or use the 'Copy' button). That will copy the whole line of text. Step 2 - Then go to the ToDo sheet, click with your mouse where you like to paste the text and press 'Control-V' (or use the 'Paste' button).

I received several requests to add copy/paste capability. I agree it is an important feature, in order to manage text in an easier way. Expecially to move tasks from the Activity Inventory toward the Todo Today Sheet. I think some improvements are also necessary to make PomoTime more user-friendly. Almost any action is accessible by the right-click popup menu, and that's not so fine. New buttons should be added on the window, for instance one to cancel the last score on the current task. Ooops, it's snowing... Jan 10 2010 - 22:24
I'm adding new lines to the To-do Sheet. Many people asked me about that. So, in the next v1.4.0 12 rows for planned tasks and 12 rows for unplanned ones. The window is becoming bigger, but as the timer starts (F5 key) you can minimize the window by pressing 'Escape' key. So only the minutes left are displayed in an always-on-top window of 1 inch length. I'm working to add Chinese, Japanese font capabilities to PomoTime. At the moment you can use English and non-English keyboards like German, French, Italian, Russian(?), Finnish, but not East or Arab keyboards. So people using Chinese fonts on their PC, or Japanese or Corean should be able to use PomoTime with their mothertongue language. Anyway this work is at its beginning stage. I don't know if it will be done for the next release 1.4.0 or the next one. Dec 20 2009 - 19:24
I'm discovering that during my rest time between a pomodoro with the next one
I'm keen to follow too many time-wasting distractions. It's important to take a break but
it should only take a couple of minutes or more. I'm getting the habit of having too long breaks. In my last break I started surfing the web and I took more than half an hour to go back to my scheduled tasks! PomoTime should discipline the pauses between pomodoros. Better if after - say 4 pomodoros - a longer break would be suggested and counted.

Well, version 1.3.0 was just released! I'm working now to have a Timer count-down more visible. When the Timer starts it is displayed out of the PomoTime window. You can drag and drop it anywhere on your screen. It is ALWAYS on top, so I decided to give it some transparency, in order to be always visible, but not too intrusive. I'm still testing it in a debug version. I can say I find it really confortable, with a quick glance you know the minutes left. What do you think? Wish to tell your opinion? Do you think another feature would be more important to develop? Click here to send your comment. Your ideas may drive the next development of PomoTime! |
