Hello. Is there a way to get the notes that I input in the menu bar information window to show up in the main window (and therefore be available for export) for that time event? They seem to not port over when I stop timing.

Thanks!
Bree

   Hi Bree,

   the notes that you input in the menu bar information window are task descriptions. They correspond to the task not a timing.
   You can separately add notes to each time event in the timings view of the main window. Those will be displayed in the CSV export file.

   I hope this helps. If you have any further questions/problems, please let me know!

   Thank you,
   Niko

   Thanks Niko. That makes sense now.

   Although it would be great to have an easy way to add a comment to Timing from the menu bar when the timer is stopped. Maybe holding the option key when clicking the icon to stop the timer. This would be useful sometimes, because in the moment, it would be handy to easily note specifically what the timing was related to.

   I agree -- would love to see a way to export the task descriptions alongside the task notes. The descriptions blank makes for a nice spot to quickly add notes/descriptions of what I am doing.

   Great app--keep up the good work, can't wait to see the next version...
