graph scale rounding
I have a suggestion for the scale in graphs. You'd have to check all the permutations, but I think it would be prettier if a scale of 58 minutes was shown as 60 minutes (or 1 hour) and that a scale max value would always be reasonably divisible by 4. Thinking minutes only, something like this might work
assume MAX_TIME is the biggest number you need to display on the graph expressed in decimal minutes
scale= int(((max_time -.01)+4)/4)*4
if scale>= 52 then scale = 60
the first bit can be wirtten as max_time+3.999
the idea is that 60.0 should become 63.999 and truncate to a final value of 60
the second statement makes anything over 50 something a full hour
It seems you have already this rounding thing figured out: 70 minutes results ina 2 hour maximum for the scale.

I’m not quite a neat freak

Inappropriate?oooh, you know it's a good suggestion when there's actually some code in it. ;-)
Hrm-- I believe that might be a bug (with the 58 minute thing). For a day view, there's no reason not to cap that at 1h (given that's the most you can spend on a per-hour basis).
But, I think you're right that the y-axis scaling calculations could be a touch more elegant.
