  1. Nagging window to remind me of tagging

    I need a pop-up window that remindes me every X (~15) min to tag.
    And ask me
    "Are you still doing <lastTag>?"
    [YES] [No] -> select other tag

    Like the "Away" window, less intrusive but still as persistent.

    During daily business, I tend to forget tagging

  2. Ability to reorder saved Timesheet reports

    My list of Timesheets (in the "Load" drop-down) is getting long and I wish there were a way to manage them better. Ideally, It'd be great if there were grouping options, but at the least, I'd like to be able to change the order of them in the list. Right now it seems that it just orders them by "create date" - with the newest ones at the bottom of the list.

    I wondered if perhaps they were stored in a config text file and would be easy to reorder, but I didn't find any, so I guess they are…

  3. Visual Indicator for Gaps in Time During Day

    Please add a visual indicator for where there are gaps in time during a day greater than a certain amount of time (say 5 to 15 minutes) and allow the addition of a tag for that time.

  7. add file path to file reports & group by tag(s)

    First... I LOVE YOUR PROGRAM! Thanks. :)

    Here's something that would make it even cooler...

    I would like to be able to analyze sub-tasks related to the individual fils I'm working on. Files often have the same naming structure so the reports don't show which project it was part of. If files are grouped and reported with the path or could be grouped by the tags I could analyze which files were being worked on for how long on a project. This would be too difficult to tag manually because I may be working between many files for short periods…

  9. Add Ability to Specify Tag Beginning... Now.

    Ideally I could hit a button to define what Im working on starting right then (eg Project A), and then hit the button a time later when I switch to something else (eg Project B) and so on with projects and lunch etc so that at the end of the day a complete profile would exist based on the projects I specified I was working on.

  10. Prevent the Escape key from closing the Notes window

    I accidentally hit escape when typing my notes on occasion and it stinks because I write quite long notes at times.

    This is more common for me because I type in Colemak and my "caps lock" key is an escape key.

  11. Individual height scaling of timelines

    Instead of scaling all timelines together, it would be much more convenient to scale each timelines height individually.

  12. Update previous tags based on saved file name or folder name

    Please add the functionality to automatically tag email replies and the original message when we save a file in a specific Outlook folder. The tag name would be the same as the folder name.

    This same functionality could be added to automatically tag word documents based on the project folder in which they are saved.

    For instance... I will read an email in my inbox, then reply to that email. As soon as I reply to the email, I have software that automatically moves the original email and the reply to a specific folder in Outlook. I want Manic Time…

  13. Select and copy fields from timesheet

    Since I'm registering time with Oracle PSA I have to reenter the timesheet data manually in the fields of the Oracle PSA Web Application.
    It would help tremendously if it would be possible to select individual fields on the timesheet in MT and copy paste it into corresponding field of the PSA web Application.

  14. Custom day start and end times

    I often stay awake doing stuff past midnight, but I'd still like to class my activities as being within the previous day; whatever they be.

    I'd find it useful if "day" tracking ends when my computer shuts down or something; or when I click a button to specify that the day is over.

  16. Track paths in dayview

    Filenames are listed; date and time is listed; but many filenames are generic, repeated, or simply not descriptive. Knowing where to find them will help to identify what project they relate to.

    This would be great, but sadly there is no silver bullet for this. There is no way we can get file path from open applications. All we can do is rely on APIs of the applications to get this information, but applications need to support this and we need to write this for each application separately.
    So currently it works for some apps, mostly office apps and few others which have this displayed in the window status bar.

  17. Exclude window titles from Screenshots

    It would be great to be able to exclude window titles from screenshots in addition or instead of process name.

    This way I could still reference what kind of task I was doing on a work web site and not collect screenshots of my facebook slacking in the same browser.

  18. save statistics page for later

    currently, it is already possible to save the statistics graph as an image.

    i would like to be able to save the data i'm browsing as an internal manictime file, that i could open later and see the same results, being able to tweak them. essentially, then, loading this saved file would open up the statistics page with the filters and results loaded.

  19. Auto-tag based on other tags

    For example I google ManicTime and click on the ManicTime website. I can tag the latter activity based on its URL, but how do I tag the former as "ManicTime, ~googling"? Sometime the keyword does not go into the title, so I can't use it to autotag. Both the document and application timelines are the same, so I can't use append tag. The absorb tag just has the same color of the activities in between in the timeline, not a tag that I actually want.

    This is also useful when you want an autotag to be prioritized, that is no…

    I don't quite understand the solution. Absorb was added just for this use case, but what you could do instead is make a normal autotag for google, with query part as part of autotag. 


    Select document timeline, in filter below type:

    #"https:\/\/www\.google\.com\/search\?q=([^&]*)"


    then click down arrow on the right of filter text box, Add to autotag and for title type:

    {{1}}, googling


    Then you will get autotags like manictime, googling....

  20. Tag Reminder as New Window

    I don't ever really see the little bubble notifications in the corner of the screen reminding me about my current timer, or to tag untagged time.

    It would be nice if a new window could pop up, or a sound.

    I have two monitors, and I am rarely looking at that bottom corner.
