Control WorkingHours with macros/hotkeys - Windows

SeanMiller14

I would like to be able to use my stream deck to start/switch between tasks and add tags to those tasks. Currently I can't seem to figure out a way to do this short of having a macro simulate mouse movements and clicks. Would it be possible to have a field when creating new tasks and tags to assigns them a hotkey?

Example:
Stop work = ctrl+w+s
Pause work = ctrl+w+p
Resume work = ctrl+w+r

Starts timer for selected task
Task 1 = ctrl+w+1
Task 2 = ctrl+w+2

Adds tag to current task
Tag 1 = ctrl+w+t+1
Tag 2 = ctrl+w+t+2

This would allow for assigning hotkeys to buttons on the stream deck

Thank you,
Sean

WorkingHours does support hotkeys for certain actions. Hover over the buttons to see what they are

timo I do see that there are hotkeys for things like "add work unit" and "start work", which get you to a point where you then need to manually enter information or change a task. What I'm hoping for is a hotkey assignment directly to a specific task.

Use case:

I push a hotkey and it starts "Task 1", I then push another hotkey and it adds "Tag 2" to that running task.

My specific use case
Tasks:
Modeling, Production, Report Writing, Training, General Correspondence, Misc.
Tags:
Project numbers/Clients

So, for example, I want to start "Production" and assign it tag "Project #" with 2 button presses on my stream deck.

Thanks
