Hi =) Thank's for this software ;)

Firstly and more important, it would be great to be able to customize the Inactive Timer when we are AFK, because I usually do a lot of reading and so keep without doing anything on keyboard nor mouse for about 20 seconds, but the inactive timer freezes the rest timers after only 3 sec, so I need to deactive it and its not rare that I go AFK and when I come back I have a bonus rest break :p

Secondly, a bug about Micro-rest timer that freezes after an entire Long-Rest break cycle, and at the end of the pause, all the timers freezes detecting that there isnt anyone on computer, but when I come back the timers works again but not the Micro-rest break timer, but it's not always true, sometimes the timer works too...

I'm on Windows XP with a good but not just recent configuration, but I think these features or bug comes from the core code.

Hope you good luck on your already great project =) Cya !

Regarding your request to customize the inactive timer: Does the new "reading mode" work for you (see bug #958)

The idle time-out is configurable, as discussed in ticket 1176. However, it is not easy to configure, which is the issue reported in 1176.

I believe this should be closed.
