[Enhancement] Show time idled #158

Open SDiii opened 9 years ago

Show time idled in a text label like this: image Could be for a specific game, or a global time that the application has been idling for any amount of games.

You have "5.1 hrs on record" information, which gives you how much time you have spent for certain game - no matter idle/active. That is probably what you wanted. I see no sense to have global time of idling. Perhaps , if one would like to have detailed statistics (number of cards received in a total time using IdleMaster). Still don't see what it would be good for.

on record =/= time idled I think global time would be useful & nice to have, that's why I posted this. It's labeled as an enhancement, not as 'lets shut down this guys idea to improve a program with a neat detail he thought of.'

Also, the position showed in OP is not very good as I have noticed when the games have long names. Perhaps putting it at the top or something would be better.

Sorry if I offended you in any way, I did not wanted to.

As a global time you mean time until you run the program to idle last card and every single restart of program reset the timer? Or global time as time from idling first card with IdleMaster until the last card ? (After restart timer continues). Quite like the idea now. Probably there might be also card counter and I can even imagine both times together.

Something like: 5.7hrs(3cards) this session / 200.5hrs(113cards) in total

What do you think ?

Well my original idea was just how long the program had been running for, but I guess you could think of it like your example (I like that a bit more).
