Description

Some people (like me) use timetracker in 1/2 hour chunks. Often you start the task at 13:28 and you want it "snapped" to 13:30. It would be good if you right click on 13:28 and can select "Snap to 13:30" or "Snap to 14" for example.

I would do add these:

1) Nearest 1/2 hour (13:30)
2) Nearest hour before (13:00)
3) Nearest hour afterwards (14:00)

What about making an option like this available by default in the configuration settings? With the option: Snap time to 1/4 hour; Snap time to 1/2 intervals. If so configured, when the stop button is selected, the clock automatically rounds up/down to nearest 1/4 or 1/2 hour, depending what is selected in the settings.

Yes, that wouldn't be too bad also. I think having both options in parallel is best.

The by configuration is a good idea in general then you might still want to "tweak" the times yourself afterwards.

Use case:
1) Let TimeTracker round to 15 minutes automatically.
2) At end of day, or end of week, "tweak" times to hourly for simplicity in recording and billing.

@all,
I totally support this last version.
Please add this function A.S.A.P.

@all, I totally support this last version. Please add this function A.S.A.P. I'm willing to pay $30 USD or more for it. Who's with me?
