Description Mik Kersten CLA 2006-01-23 14:37:24 EST
For long-running tasks, the Elapsed time should only indicate the time elapsed during the report period.  This will likely involve creating support that uses MylarContextManager and the monitor.reports stuff.
Comment 1 Robert Elves CLA 2006-02-24 13:10:56 EST
With respect to the new planner design... I observed that the planning view we have discussed is just another representation of the task list. Perhaps we could make it a 'mode' of the current task list? This would eliminate the need for yet another view and keeps 'tasking' activity within the task view.  This may be a potential extension point - view modes. The 'planning' mode would add a few new columns and group and sort tasks by week categories. Other than overloading the view, an immediate problem I see is that actual drag and drop to plan would be problematic, unless this was simply a static 'report' mode of view.  Thoughts?

That's a good point.  Let's keep this in mind as we work out the history view.

Progress on time/logging issues.

Mik: This patch includes 'exploratory' changes for your consideration. In particular, changes to MylarContextManager to signal the timer upon context activation/deactivation. We still need a means of recording deactivation of active task upon shutdown.

Please re-generate this patch, too many conflicts.

Comment 6 Mik Kersten CLA 2006-03-27 14:44:37 EST
Patch applied.  We need to make a close review of this together to make sure that timing is right, and set up additional tests if necessary, so I'll leave open until we can do that.

Rob, is this still on for 0.6?
Comment 8 Robert Elves CLA 2006-06-28 18:05:17 EDT
Could get involved, moving to 0.7...
