Option for resuming tasks without creating a new entry

SvenBuder

Thank you for your hard work. Bought your app for myself on three platforms and a few of my colleagues did as well.

WorkingHours version: 2.7.7.0
Operating system: Win10s, MACs, Androids, iPhones (among my colleagues; we also have Ubuntu and Debian users who would gladly use your app)

Our use case.
Look at this:

Project A 8:00 - 8:30
Project B 8:30 - 9:00
Project C 9:00 - 10:30
Project A 10:30 - 10:45
Project C 10:45 - 12:00
a lot more As, Bs, Cs, Ds, Es, ...

Example (At the end of the day, I will have 10+ entries):

The entries are created manually and via the "start" button on top of the list.
I often have to jump from project to project. I stop, resume and create new tasks (entries) to the list. I round tasks to full 15min. At the end of the day, I very often have 11+ hours of work, even if I only worked 8. This is due to the time overlap. If I start a task at 9:00, stop it at 9:05 and start a new one, I have two entries with 15 min each. If I now resume the first, I have three entries. It would be cool, if it would resume the first one without creating a new entry. I understand that this is because of the time. But I do not need the time. I only need the duration.

If you take my example from above, it then would look like this:

Project A 0:45
Project B 0:30
Project C 2:45

This would spare me lot of time and frustration.

You mean continuing a task instead of starting it over?

I would prefer that the merging of the same tasks of the same day is done by the program: Merge all selected tasks. Use the first start time and the last stop time and fill the non-working time with pause (add the already calculated pause times to get the correct working time).
It would be perfect if the individual start and stop times were then added to the text, so that you can later track what was summarized.
This is because it happen often to me, that I have different task content within one day, so I also have different tasks for the same customer at the same day, but with different actions. This is why I would prefer to merge only selected Tasks.

However, the real continue of a task can be very useful if you have stopped a task by mistake and just want to continue it without opening another task.
