Bug ID: 515552
Summary: Ktimer should have an option to stop a timer if the
user is away
Classification: Applications
Product: ktimer
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Sometimes with a timer running we have to step away. This leads to the computer
entering sleep mode or the session getting locked. When that happens the Timer
still keeps on running. In such circumstances there should be a flag available
like, "Loop" and "Consecutive task", which will enable the Timer to be stopped.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch KTimer application from the KDE Launcher or from the terminal
2. Click on the NEW button to add a new task.
3. In the new Task give the duration as 10 or 15 or 30 minutes. Click on the
'Start A countdown" button to start the countdown.
4. Once the countdown has started, allow the computer to go to sleep or to be
suspended or lock the session (Meta + L). Before doing this note the countdown
timer value.
5. After 30 secs or 60 secs or 120 secs wake the computer up or log in back.
OBSERVED RESULT
The countdown timer would have continued to decrease.
EXPECTED RESULT
The countdown timer should have paused and then when the user logs back in or
the computer is woken up then the countdown timer should resume. Not from the
beginning but from when the computer was put into sleep or suspended or the
session was locked.
There ought to be a flag which should control this. For example "Pause when
computer is locked/suspended/or goes to sleep"
