Version: (using KDE 4.2.90) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages After updating to 4.2.90 my ktimetracker does not show the total time for all tasks in the statusline. In 4.2.4 it does and it was a great help managing time. Any hint, how to swicht this on again? Thanks Thomas
I removed it because I could not think of a situation where you would need it.
I do need it, because with this little item I do check my daily time of work. It is a very good help to look to the statusline and get an idea of how much time you spent working the day.
Finally I'm also back reporting bugs, now from KDE 4.3. I do need this for the book-keeping of my weekly working hours. Also, on every day it gives me an overview of how long I have already worked. Maybe it should be a configurable option. There is nothing that could replace this feature. My task file has several independent trees, i.e. not a single root node, where I could easily look up the cumulated time. And if I had a single root node, I'd still have to scroll there.
I'm also desperately missing the total time. Please bring it back! Now it just says "Successfully saved /a/very/long/path". This is totally irrelevant! If there was an error saving the file, then display it then, instead. The UNIX tradition is to be silent on success.
Created attachment 37575 [details] Perl script computing a sum of time values This is a script that I wrote when this bug first occurred. Maybe it's also helpful for you.
Just updated to version 4.3.3 and I am sorely missing the total time, too. I also use it to keep track of my daily and weekly work hours. Please bring it back! I am not sure what 4.x version I had before, but there it was showing. Thanks, Randolf
It was removed with 4.0. I plan to add it again and accept patches.
This patch gives an idea how this could work: diff --git a/ktimetracker/mainwindow.cpp b/ktimetracker/mainwindow.cpp index abb3747..75e09d2 100644 --- a/ktimetracker/mainwindow.cpp +++ b/ktimetracker/mainwindow.cpp @@ -55,7 +55,7 @@ MainWindow::MainWindow( const QString &icsfile ) kDebug(5970) << "Entering function, icsfile is " << icsfile; // Setup our actions setupActions(); - + statusBar()->insertPermanentItem("Total Time:",0,0); // this routine will find and load our Part.

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I will be closing this bug.
