Task names for displaying task window.
Small suggestion:
- is it possible to name the window with the subject of the task (exemple for T1: Edit task T1), useful in the window menu to select the right task when many are opened?
- is it possible to name the task panel with full task path like in tasks list (exemple for MainT including SubT: MainT -> SubT), useful when a subject of a subtask is generic to many main tasks?
Many thanks.1 voteTitle of edit dialogs is more informative, starting release 1.0.3.

Keeping track of tasks that need to be billed is already possible, using either a subtask (“Send invoice for parent task”) or having a category of tasks that still need to be invoiced.

Option "Pause Task" in systrays popup menu
Actually there's only start (with submenu) and stop a task.
But very often I only have to pause a task for a while and to continue it directly after a break.
It's tedious to start this task again by surfing through submenus or opening the main window.15 votesThe single item now is “stop or resume” and acts on whatever was the current or previous task.

View time worked across all tasks or subtasks per day/week.
I would like to be able to get a breakdown of the time I have worked on various tasks. And since I create a "root" task for each client, I could see how much time to bill :)
2 votesUse the total time spent column to see the total time spent on a root task.
Cheers, Frank

Task square map for priority
I would love to see a option which allows me change the task square map -view from budget to priority.
This is because i to not use budget informtation at all but the square view is a much better visual overview which tasks are high priority tasks and which not. Now I use budget to affort this and have to set priorities too what is a little bit confusing and generates errors.1 voteRelease 1.0.0 supports visualizing priority with the square map viewer.

Automatically pause task effort when computer not in use
Maybe the other TaskCoach users are disguised robots that always remember to stop their effort tracking. Unfortunately I'm not one of those:-(
This feature would make TC display a dialog after the computer is inactive for 10 minutes. The dialog would say something like "Your computer is inactive for 10min, would you like to stop tracking the effort?". Three options would be presented:
1) Stop using the time when the computer became inactive.
2) Stop using the current time.
3) Continue trackingThese options cover the case of forgetting to stop the task, of recording the time of a meeting,…
11 votesThe current version of Task Coach includes this feature precisely. The amount of time for inactivity can be set in the preferences. Cheers!

shortcut to the start tracking effort
i could be nice to got a shortcut for the start tracking effort since the context menu of a task is very big. if it's possible at the same time you should do it for stop tracking.
2 votesUse cntrl-T to start tracking selected task.
There’s also cntrl-E to do the same without stopping already tracked efforts and opening the effort window.
The same command (cntrl-shift-T) works for stopping and restarting the last tracked task.
There are buttons and contextual menus and regular action menus for all these things.
Finally, you might want to vote for this:

Move tasks into various categories
I would like to print out my task list excluding MAJOR completed tasks (but including sub-cat. tasks for major tasks uncompleted).
Other software allows me to create two lists (Main and Archive). When I complete a task I can move them to Archive so I don't lose them but I can actually print my activities.
3 votesSee Frank’s comment below.
Also, you can make extra categories for things like “Main” and mark that and then filter by that.
If you want to fully export tasks for archiving, see the discussion under this other request:

You can either give the task no start date or a start date in the (far) future and it becomes “inactive”. Inactive tasks can be hidden using the toolbar of task viewers.

Improve the export utility or the notes view
could be interesting to be able to export or print the description and the text of the notes.
May be with a view with the whole info of a task, including the text of the notes and the description.
Or may be using the notes view for that purpose.
2 votesThe description can be printed and exported. Just make the description column visible. NB: there’s a bug where long descriptions will not be printed/exported completely but abbreviated with “…”. This bug will be fixed in the next release of Task Coach.
