Personally I like the duplication in the history list (it's a true view of what was clocked in recently) Personally, I would find it clearer to see every task at most once, be it as default, interrupted or in the list.

Something which is not a question of taste, IMHO, is that items are sometimes duplicated within the 1..N list: I have, for example, Recent Tasks [1] Read emails [2] Organize work [3] Organize work [4] Prepare meeting Items 2 and 3 are the same one -- I don't have Organize work duplicated within my agenda files. I don't understand why it's duped in there. Ever observed this as well? The main thing I'm reporting is all the whitespace now at the bottom of the screen since the list is artificially scrolled up. I used to be able to determine exactly what fit in the list so I set my history length appropriately. I know that item duplication is a side-question, but it does consume real screen estate... Hi Seb, I'm fine with removing duplicates in the 1-N list. Regards, Bernt

Also, I added clocked-out time for each task. Let me know if you think it's useful or too much visual stress. Thanks Bastien. I don't like the additional timestamp information. When I split my window horizontally (on my old non-widescreen monitor) too much of the task text is cut off. The relative positions of the items in the list is much more important to me than exactly when they were last clocked in. I usually visually scroll down from top to bottom to clock in an unfinished task (the last one I worked on) and I don't care if this was 5 minutes ago or yesterday in the list. Thanks, Bernt

In the first screen, items d, i and 2 seem redundant, while items c and 1 seem also redundant. The data has been modified but the duplication isn't new. The only tasks I renamed were 'SomeTask' and 'SomeOtherRefileTask'. I used capture to create foo as a temporary task (which I subsequently deleted).
