It would be nice to be able to set the day limit in "absolute" units: from ... to.

Reason: I do not switch off my PC at work for a whole week. In this case the day limit can not be used? Or it starts from the first key/mouse activity in the morning?

I do the same thing. Daily limit works fine in this case.

Daily limit gets reset at 4:00 am every night. This time is chosen because it is unlikely you are working at that particular time. So yes, daily limit starts counting on the first key/mouse activity in the morning.

Hi,

Is the 4:00 am changeable?

My problem is, all of my machines has UTC time, but I am (physically) moving across time zones and starts my day between 07:00-10:00 local time.

For example, in Papua (WIT, UTC +09:00) my day starts about 22:00 UTC, and 04:00 UTC is lunch time.

If I can set when a new day comes, it would really be really nice addition to Workrave.

Thanks.
