[question] Adding tasks #4

Open fredguth opened 6 years ago

fredguth commented 6 years ago

I am not sure if I have a bug in my installation, but I cmd+shift+P and start to write Pomo.... And 3 options appear: Pomodoro: Add Task Pomodoro: Run Task Pomodoro: Clear completed tasks counter

I try to select 'add task' ... nothing happens. I was expecting an input field would appear to let me choose the name of the task.

How can I debug this? I believe this is something particular to my environment.

I came here, to see how to open up the console. cmd+shift+P was missing from the readme.

@fredguth works for me with these steps:

  1. cmd+shift+P
  2. Type Pomodoro - select Pomodoro: Add Task
  3. Then the box changes to task name, type something in and hit enter
  4. Click the green arrow at the bottom of VScode :ok

Now it is working. But I guess the interface is more complicated than what I wanted. I just wanted an alternative to using tomato-timer in the browser. I don't see the value of naming tasks in pomodoro. I hate the clock jumping from one time to the other. I guess I may not know how to use the extension, but at the same time, the author didn't bother on explaining it as well.
