Main window does not reflect new timer after system shutdown and start with reopen windows when logging back in
If you have TImelime running before you shutdown and the main window is displayed, when you shutdown with "Reopen windows when logging back in" set then start the system, Timelime comes back up with all other applications, If you start and stop a timer from the toolbar (I used a custom hotkey of F13), Timelime records it, but the Main window does not show the timer. If it is the first timer of the day, there is no new colored dot in the calendar. If you close the Main window and re-open it, the new timer is shown, and the calendar has a new colored dot.

Hi Roger,
Thank you very much for reporting this issue!
I have been trying to reproduce it several times in different conditions, but it always worked as expected and the main window shows the timer started in the menu bar.
What is your setup? What kind of Mac are you using, what’s your macOS version, …
Thanks again,
Niko

I am running on:
MacBook Pro 13 inch 2019
MacOS 10.14.6
2.8 Ghz CPU
16 GB RAM
This issue only seems to happen after having the main UI open before shutdown, restarting the OS, and having the OS restore all windows that were open before shutdown.
Thanks,
Roger

Hi Roger,
I have now tried to reproduce the issue on a MacBook Pro running macOS 10.14.6, but it still worked as expected.
Do you have “Open main window at launch” checked in Timelime’s preferences?
On my Mac the Timelime window would only open when this is checked, even when I check “Reopen windows when logging back in” when restarting the OS.
Thanks,
Niko

No, that option is not checked.
This only seems to happen after the main window is already open when I shutdown my Mac, and then start it up again the next day (with the reopen new windows when logging back in option set). If there main window wasn't already open when I shutdown the Mac, then when I open it the next time, it reflects new timers set in the toolbar.
Thanks,
Roger
