Okay, thanks for the reply and good to hear that you're working on the problem.-
Rich Lewis reported a problem in Toggl on June 02, 2009 09:31:
New Toggl Widget forgets me! :-(The new Toggl Widget (as announced on the blog here: http://blog.toggl.com/2009/05/new-wid...) doesn't remember me even when I tell it to. Every morning I have to login in to it despite checking the box. I'm running Vista Enterprise 64-bit and use Firefox to access Toggl. Toggl on Firefox remembers me fine. I don't know whether this is the same problem as here: http://getsatisfaction.com/toggl/topi... but I figured not considering this is a new Widget, is it not? -

Emergency Task ButtonHow about adding an Start Emergency Task button? Consider the scenario: you're busy working away on a task that being timed nicely in Toggl, then your manager or some other well meaning, yet important, soul comes up to you and just starts a discussion about something else entirely. Or someone shouts across the room that your main database server has just melted. Arg! What do you do? You don't want to say, 'Hey, hold on a sec. while I just calmly stop this task timer, methodically create a new task and start timing this conversation/server meltdown'. No, what you want is a great big Start Emergency Task button that simply requires one click to stop the current task and create and automatically start another. Maybe the task is called Emergency Task 1. Then when the emergency is over, you can stop it calmly and change its description and project/client to something more appropriate. What d'ya say? -

Good news! Keep up the good work. -

Okay, nice one! Sounds like I can do what I need then.
I guess it would be nicer not to have to type 'Task A' again, but mustn't grumble too much! :-) -

Thanks for the swift response Jaanus!
Okay, that sounds good. Will Toggl still give me a total duration of both Task As added together? -

I completely agree. I wrote out basically the same idea before I found this. So my prose isn't complete wasted, here it is:
At present in the reports, each task shows when you first started it and when you last stopped it. However, I often do task A for a bit, then switch to task B for a long time, then go back to task A briefly. So in the Task Report this would look like this:
Task A - Start 10:15, Stop 17:45 - Duration 00:30:00
Task B - Start 10:30, Stop 17:30 - Duration 07:00:00
Now I understand the importance of having total task time, but to me the above is misleading - at a glance it looks too much like I was doing Task A all day. Would it be possible to show each instance of Task A, perhaps with a running total, like so:
Task A - Start 10:15, Stop 10:30 - Duration 00:15:00 - Running Total 00:15:00
Task B - Start 10:30, Stop 17:30 - Duration 07:00:00 - Running Total 07:00:00
Task A - Start 17:30, Stop 17:45 - Duration 00:15:00 - Running Total 00:30:00
Of course this is a simplified example. In reality it's far more complex than this, with maybe 15-20 tasks all starting and stopping, so for a task that I've only spent a few minutes on looks like I've spent hours on, just because I've done other things in between. -
