Description

When a task is running and we become idle, there is 3 options:
- Stop (Stop the task when idle start)
- Restart (stop when idle start, and continue from now on)
- Continue (the idle time is ignored)

It sould have two more options
1 - It should be possible to stop the task in a diferent time from the idle start.
2 - It sould be possible to change the task while in idle mode.

Example 1:
- I have a schedulled meeting before lunch. I change the TimeTracker to "Meeting Task", ang go to that meeting. When the meeting is over everybody went to lunch. When I come back to my PC, I would like to say that the task ended, not when the idle time started, but at some time.

Example 2:
- I'm working in "Task A", then go to a meeting and I did'nt change the task to the "Meeting Task". When I come back, I would like to insert the idle time as "Meeting Task" and continue my "Task A".

Just my features requests for now.

I'm afraid that having too many options will confuse most of the users.

Right now you can do those things by double clicking the date, start time, stop time or details and enter the new values.
Since the project or task fields are read-only to change them you need to start and stop the desired Task, edit there values and than delete the previous time entry. But I agree that this should be easier and faster.
