  1. Compress Scheduled Backup

    Currently my daily manic time backups are over 240MB.
    ZIP compressed brings it down to 83MB.
    I'd like to request an option to compress the sdf backup as a zip file

  2. Saving filter / search request

    It would be nice to be able to save filters (or searches, or finds, or whatever you call the box when you Ctrl-F) WITHOUT saving them as an AutoTag.

    As far as I can tell, this isn't something that you can do right now on the desktop version.

    If I write a complex search string (or even not that complex, but hard to remember) that I expect to use again, the only thing I can do is save it as a text file and copy and paste it back when I next need it.

    Thanks

  4. Screenshot Database for Security Purposes

    I like the screenshot feature for myself to remind myself what I was actually doing at a particular time. But the idea of screenshots so plainly visible to anyone with access to that folder means potential security breach and even compromised PII.

    If the screenshots could be saved in a small compressed format that could be saved in a secure database with limited retention like a couple days I think that would be a big help. Typically the screenshots are only useful for me when Im performing end of day tagging and I need to remember what I was doing…

    You can now include first and last occurrence (last occurrence being the end time of last tag) into the timesheet. Note that this doesn't mean Start time and End time of each tag activity because tags are grouped and summed into one row. If you want each tag separately you can do that by exporting the timeline details.

  6. Focus password window when launching from tray

    I think it used to do this correctly, but I've noticed in recent versions, when you click the tray icon to launch ManicTime and you have it secured with a password, the password box does not focus when it appears, so you have to click on the box to type the password. I swear you used to be able to click the tray icon and then type your password because the password box had focus. It's a small thing, but a quirky thing...

  7. nightly

    Firefox Nightly works almost always like Firefox, but manictime doesn't know that it's more or less the same. Hopefully the firefox document timeline plugin could recognize "Nightly" and "Firefox Developer Edition" with only a minimal adaptation.

  8. In timesheet view have a column to show tags not used in grouped by

    I'd like a column that shows a list of tags not used in the grouped-by clause. (in my case I group by first level tags, so I want to show second level tags and below)

  9. Logging

    Hello I was wondering would it be possible to export to a file that looks like the the tag section on the main page. I have attached a photo to show which section I am talking about. I have tried the time sheet export but I would like to export the duration and start and end times. Thank you for any help you can provide.

  12. Freshbooks Integration of tagged time

    Manic Time Tags should be able to be linked to Freshbooks (Project-Task) through an add in. Then as soon as time was tagged it would be invoiceable, and the details would always match. Many other time tracking apps have it.

  13. timeline connector for SQL query

    I understand there is a feature to construct a custom timeline by accessing some kind of XML data, but it would seem to be useful to be able to extract timelines from remote dbs via normal SQL.

    (this could potentially be implemented on both the Desktop client and Server)

    (this is a request I made in the old forums, just replicating it here for visibility:
    http://forum.manictime.com/yaf_postst163_timeline-connector-for-SQL-query.aspx#post576)

  15. taskbar

    Windows 10 has auto-hide taskbar issues with Manic Time.
    It starts up with windows but prevents the taskbar auto-hide until launch it. (started to kill running apps... dropbox, logitech, gdrive app by app and it get better only after killing MT). With the latest 3.5.1.0 update it seems to be good but need to test for some days.

  16. on/off the record button

    Once you go "off the record" there is a button that appears to start tracking again on the desktop version. This function would be AWESOME to have all of the time. One click to go off the record, one click to go back on the record - instead of having to go to the notification area of the task bar to go "off the record"

  19. start with trace Disabled and question wether to start trace

    I would like a feature where could have Manic time start with windows but give a Message box that defines wether tracing should be enabled or disabled. Ie. when i start my laptop in the morning to read the news it is a personal thing and i do not want to record time. but when i get into work later that day i want to record everything.. and then again in the evening when i get home the reason that i start the laptop could be either personal or proffessional.

  20. I use the Windows 24 hour clock. I need to record time rounded to ten minutes. When I add a tag Start time displays as for example 08:22:33

    I use the Windows 24 hour clock. I need to record time rounded to ten minutes. When I add a tag Start time displays as for example 08:22:33 and End time as 09:41:00 (HH:MM:ss, the long time format). I do not need the seconds so the short date format (HH:mm) would have been fine but that option is not available. What is worse: when start/end time must be changed the colon button may have to be used four times to make amendments; you cannot use the decimal key to distinguish between minutes and seconds. That is very awkward if you…
