Hello,

With the 1.9.3 update, the natural rest break triggers each time my screen gets auto-locked due to inactivity.  However, if I cancel the autolock by pressing some button, the autolock doesn't happen, but the Natural Rest Break dialog does appear and stay there.  If this natural rest break is skipped, the next rest break is scheduled after 1 hr (my setting for time between rest breaks).

What could be done is to wait for some timeout (say 1 min) between the start of screen auto-lock and any other activity.  If there's no activity in this period, the natural rest break can proceed, else the rest break timer should be set to the value just before the natural rest break started.

This frequently happens when I'm reading something on the screen and the auto-lock period expires.  In these situations, I just press a key and continue reading.

Using workrave on a Fedora Linux system.

This is the normal behaviour for "skip" (though it is unfortunate in this case). I guess you want to click "postpone", to make the break window go a way but not reset the timers.

Waiting some time before enabling the natural rest break is a good idea. Thanks for that!

Postponing doesn't work as well as it postpones only for 5 mins (my setting for postpone timer).  The timer should be reset to the value it was at before the natural break triggers.

You're right. That's very weird and shouldn't happen.

The 'automatically start break on screen-lock' option is now configurable and the postpone problem has been fixed (in commit  0101db5bafff723872a2)
