Description

Configuration: WinXP Professional SP2, Portuguese (Brazil), Micropause is 15s each 10min, Rest is 5min each 1 hour, block mode is "input and screen", show applet on taskbar. When a micro-break occurs during a rest break, both timers remain green (at the taskbar). I begin to type/click the mouse and the rest timer turn blue and re-start counting, but the micro-break timer remain stopped at 10:00 (green background). I have to disable & enable the micro-break timer to restart it. Occurs most times when I click the "Block" button to lock WinXP during rest break. Sorry the not-so-good english.

I'm afraid I don't really understand.. "When a micro-break occurs during a rest break, both timers remain green (at the taskbar)" How can a microbreak occur during a restbreak? Green means idle, so the timers should not be green when a break starts. Could you give a more specfic overview of what is happing?

After that, the micro-break timer stop counting until I shut Workrave down & restart it. The same occurs if microbreak or restbreak starts when the daily limit message is active, both counters remain green. That's the situation in the PNG I've sent.

Thanks, I now understand the problem :-) If Workrave attempt to start a break during another break, then that a big bug. What are your 'suspend timer while inactive' settings of the microbreak and restbreak?

I need to stay looking the screen at work (no typing), a lot of time, just checking the servers. If I check them, the breaks will never start :-)

Indeed. Should be fixed now. The next nightly build (>= May 3rd) should contain the fix.
