Oh no! It's not catching it AT ALL? Ah, it looks like it's based on Eclipse (a Java App). Is it possible that it's reporting it as "java" or bundled in with "Eclipse" time (if you use Eclipse)?
Java apps are a bit of a pain in our backside, but we're trying to support them better than we do.
Here is a thread where this is discussed a bit:

And here is a tool that allows you to customize the name that a Java apps gets launched as:
http://launch4j.sourceforge.net/
If it's just plain MISSING time, let me know!

Inappropriate?Oh snap! I thought that the JavaW app was the time I spent playing Puzzle Pirates. HAHA. I guess I'll have to use that wrapper application to split the two apart...thanks for that! :)
I’m amused

Inappropriate?Well I got the program, however it has to wrap a .jar file. My Flex builder is launched with an .exe and so is puzzle pirates so I am not really sure how to do it...
I’m confused

Inappropriate?colbycheeze, I'm installing Flex Builder to see how RescueTime interacts with it. I'll let you know if there is something that can be easily tweaked to help the issue you are seeing.
Thanks! -

Inappropriate?I installed Flex Builder and it looks like it actually runs two executables, a FlexBuilder.exe and the javaw.exe. FlexBuilder.exe must be a stub application because it is not what is in focus when you are using the code editor, javaw.exe is so that it where RescueTime will associate FlexBuilder time.
We are looking into ways of getting more in-depth information from applications, but unfortunately this isn't a quick or easy fix. I'll continue researching how we can get more detailed information from an application, so keep your eyes open for a future release that will help you!
Thanks
