Studiometry offers these nice features with blueprints, project templates including stages, etc. But in the end, it's all for naught, because there is no easy way to track time to those blueprints and project stages, just a standard timer with a standard rate. Even if I offered a fixed price, I'd like to be able to track whether the initial assessment was accurate. And I don't want randomly named timer entries to clutter the clients bills (is there a way to merge these default timers after the fact?)
Seriously, opening the program, navigating to the right client, project and work tab, double clicking the blueprint to access the timer is too much overhead for those pesky 5 minute interruptions which usually take up half of each working hour.
Why can't I access them from menubar icon? That Icon could do a lot more: show if a timer is running (who really runs more than a timer anyway?) including a pause button, and show the hours clocked to it already. (Yep, I'm another billings3 escapist fleeing from marketcircles extortionistic grab ;-)
I also need to export tracked time including start and end timestamps, preferably in a configurable CSV format. Ideally, the system should split timelogs running over midnight.
