Manictime's screenshot feature is a life saver. But it also takes up a ton of space using a full separate image for each screenshot. 90% of the time, adjacent screenshots are nearly identical, except for some text on the screen. Huge storage efficiency could be gained by using difference calculation between screenshots.

For example:
1. Every 10 minutes, take a fresh screenshot. Store it as a png like normal.
2. Every 15 seconds thereafter, take a new screenshot to memory
3. Using a library like ImageMagick, calculate the subtraction from the most recent png screenshot and the new screenshot in memory.
4. Store that subtraction alongside the other screenshots, but with a different file extension, like .pngdiff.

When browsing the screenshots, just do the reverse
1. Open the screenshot (png or pngdiff) for the time selected by the user
2. If it happens to be a png file, simply display it as-is.
3. If it's a pngdiff file, open the png most recently taken before the selected pngdiff
4. Using a library like imagemagick, perform an addition operation on the png and the pngdiff
5. Display the calculated image.

This could save many gigabytes of disk space without too much CPU overhead.

Would love to see a shortcut that tags the selected block of time with the last tag used, i.e. the tag that's at the top of the "add tag" list.

I often go through my timeline to find the spots throughout the day where I was working on a particular project, and I tag each of these blocks of time as I go through. Instead of having to open the "add tag" window every time (press Ctrl+T, then click on the tag at the top of the list to copy it and the notes over to the left, then press Ctrl+Enter to select it and close the window) it would be great to simply press a keyboard shortcut, like we can do with tag shortcuts. In this case, though, I can't use a tag shortcut because there's just too many possible tags/note combinations that I might want to use over the span of a week or two.

Another way to think of this request: it's a tag shortcut, but the actual tag and note aren't static -- they are always based on the last tag and note you assigned to a block of time. Every time I assign a different tag/note to a block, this "dynamic" tag shortcut changes to reflect this new tag and note combination.

There are similar ideas for desktop statistics, but let me explain a workflow we are using with Cloud version.

First of all, we went with Manic Time because for our use case it almost works automatically. Also our Manic Time use is based on trust.

So we have a first rule that if you do something personal, you stop Manic Time.

We also have a rule for work browser and personal browser (which we have excluded from tracking) because these days you "have to" do some personal browsing through out the day.

Then we have a set of apps that we autotag and autotag time is the measure of how much a person is working. So we have a bit of initial setup, but after that, it would be all automatic, except, autotags are not send to cloud. So they don't show up in the "Drill down" section.

So it's this last step where we have to manually copy autotags to tags so that they are sent to the cloud.

It would be very useful to automate this last step. Either add an option to have autotags in the "Drill down" view or add an option in desktop app to "auto-copy" autotags to tags.

Thanks

Afaic, ManicTIme is focused in Windows machines, with a tracker available for the other platforms. So someone on these other platforms can use the service (even though a bit cumbersomely compared to windows) even without a full port that we would like.

The hickup in this, is that if he wants to use the WIndows App (let's admit it is way more useful for individuals than the server web page) he has to launch a VM every time.

Having said these, understanding that a full port to other platforms can be costly for the ManicTime Team, I would like to ask if it would be easier to work on a WineHQ compatibility layer. That way, we could use the Windows App (at least in linux).
