Day View

Overview

Day view presents an overview of the selected day. It is displayed from midnight to midnight. By default it auto zooms to the parts which contain any data. Main window is divided into three main pieces:

• Timelines
• Details
• Summary

Timelines

Timelines are an integral part of Manictime. They provide you with an overview of the day, so you can quickly see what is going on during the day. By dragging on the timelines you can also select time and then tag it. There are four timelines:

• Tag timeline - shows your tags, it is the only timeline which is not automatically populated.
• Computer usage timeline - shows your active and away(idle) time
• Application timeline - shows which applications were used, when and for how long. Each application is presented in its own color so you can easily see when you started or stopped using it.
  ManicTime tracks only currently used window, so even if you have ten applications running at the same time, it will only track the one you are using at the moment.
• Documents timeline - shows you which sites you visited and which documents you opened. List of applications from which ManicTime will try to extract additional data.

By clicking on a timeline you select it. Details and summary part below will show data for selected timeline.
