  1. Allow Edit Timer Start before you have stopped it

    As a user that forgot to start the timer, I would like to correct the start time at any point rather than wait until the timer is stopped so that my information is more accurate (otherwise I need to write down the start time on a piece of paper so that I can edit it later.)

  2. Track the conversation in Skype

    Skype gets tracked correctly when it is running, however not which conversation it is showing. Ideally MT would show which skype thread is being discussed and track against that project. Currently skype title just says "Skype" which is pretty useless. Is it possible to auto detect the chat that is active?

    Using:
    Skype version 8.65.0.78

  6. Autotag time duration can be calculated from data (and appended to Notes)

    Dynamic autotags are great. I use them to append into my Notes information about actual filenames, so I can more easily generate timesheets which I then review and revise to explain to clients what I was doing during the 3.3 hours (for example) that I was working on their matter. It would be helpful if the filename in the Notes could also have a duration added afterwards (perhaps in brackets), so that I can easily assess what I spent more time on as compared to other files.

    I know this won't be completely accurate, and I'm not looking to completely…

  7. Clear filter shortcut

    Application shortcuts - General - Add a shortcut function for "Clear filter".
    It doesn't have to assigned to a key by default, although I would like to use the ESC key.

    To reach for the mouse to hit the X button on the filter line or ctrl-F, shift-END, DEL is the only options right now.

  8. 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

  9. Minimum Hours for being counted present

    Currently, Manictime server marks someone present if they have any time on the computer in a given day. However, it is not uncommon at our company for someone to log in to their computer via Remote Desktop for making arrangements for being OOO (specifically for sick leave).

    It would be helpful to have a configurable minimum value that, if not exceeded, would indicate the person was absent for the day.

  10. customizable copy format of tagged time

    at the moment, a simple "copy" of a tagged time results in a single line containing
    "tag" "start time" "end time" "duration" "notes without line break"

    at the moment I miss the date here as well as line breaks that were originally inside the notes. For the time format I would not need seconds in the copy output.

    maybe you could make the format customizable, or add date and linebreaks?

  11. Make 'Tag picker' a permanent selection

    Instead of display the 'Tag picker' as a modal dialog make it a switchable selection in the 'Add tag' dialog.

    The 'Add tag' could display a list of pinned or last used tags.

    Below it there could be either a list of all tags/tag combinations or the 'Tag picker'. This selection should be reused, when displaying the 'Add tag' dialog the next time.

  15. 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.

  16. Complete search functionality for tags

    The way I enter in notes to tags would allow me to do a search to find out how many tagged entries I've made based on certain keywords and properties. However, ManicTime is missing a search functionality for this. The current search only seems to allow for searching the date you are viewing on the timeline, and the Statistics tab in ManicTime does not have a keyword search function (where it would tally up and calculate everything that met the criteria).

    I would like to be able to search for certain keywords over the past 3 months to see how…

  17. Individual height scaling of timelines

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

  18. 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…

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
