On the regular taskcoach mailing list I suggested that the start and end values for the hour range in the Edit Effort dialog be controlled by a preference setting either in the ini file or the preferences dialog (or both).
The values are hard coded in class TimeCtrl, so the preference settings would have to be passed there somehow. The code is complex and I wasn't able to narrow my focus through the obligatory googling/mailing list searching, so I don't know where to jump in. What I was thinking I needed to do was: 1) find some way to add a new preference value to the ini file 2) find out the correct TaskCoach idiom to get the preference values to the TimeCtrl class 3) find out how to add the capability to modify the preference values using the Preferences dialog so you didn't have to edit the .ini file directly. Any ideas on how to start, or where to look in the code? I generally try to start by trying to locate places in the code that do similar things and modify from there, but have not seen anything so far. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Rob
