Keeping Time R6 introduces Autocomplete, Backups and more!
This new version adds auto-completion to the Summary field when entering or editing a time entry. Likewise, little "Snippets" of text can be saved and added in the Details field. You can manage these autocomplete values in the new Manage Project dialog.
Every timelist can how have a colour assigned to it. You can use that colour to denote different types of lists; or people associated with them, or whatever you want! For now, the colour is shown in a small strip below the list selector, but this feature will be greatly expanded in future versions.
Keeping Time can now make backups of your projects when saving a file or when closing it. Projects can be made in the location of the project, or in a dedicated backup folder. You can even tell Keeping Time to keep a freely selectable number of older versions of your projects! All this can be configured in the greatly revamped Settings dialog, which now also features a place to check for updates, also on loading the application.
Note that this update check is disabled by default. KT will only access our server to check for updates, and will not do so without you enabling this feature.
Large areas of the application have been greatly revamped for R6 to make further additions possible and there are numerous little tweaks in pretty much every area!
Just one of the more hidden features is the -f command line argument to directly load a specific project.
