TrackRecord 1.3 is the single biggest update we’ve made to TrackRecord since its debut almost two years ago. For the 1.3 release we looked at exactly what made TrackRecord the best Basecamp time tracking experience around, and then we set out to make it even better. Here’s what we’ve been up to:
Project list filtering
You asked for it, and we’re happy to deliver. TrackRecord now comes with filter support, allowing you to selectively hide projects that you’re either not involved in or aren’t actively timing against. It’s a great way to de-clutter and prioritise.
Todo filtering
Only want to see the to-dos you’re personally responsible for? TrackRecord comes with a handy responsibility filter. Toggle it on or off to instantly breakdown your project listing.
Manual time editing improvements
Entering time manually shouldn’t be a chore. That’s why TrackRecord 1.3 comes with support for multiple time formats as well as improved error handing. Whether you like to deal in hours, minutes and seconds (02:00:00/02:00) or prefer Basecamp’s native approach (2.0), there’s something here for everyone.
Time tallying
TrackRecord now comes with a timer tally in the application’s bottom bar. Select one or more timers and we’ll total your time. Perfect for quickly checking how much time you’ve spent across a project or a particular period of time.
Drag & Drop
Want to start a timer quickly? Just drag a project or to-do from the project pane onto the timer list and TrackRecord 1.3 will automatically create an associated timer.
New networking class
We’ve totally rewritten TrackRecord’s networking class from the ground up. You’ll see faster connection times and better error handling.
UI updates
Our 1.2 update brought the application up-to-speed in the interface department, and TrackRecord 1.3 continues the trend. We’ve completely removed the restrictions surrounding project pane resizing, making it even easier to read those long to-dos.
Lion fixes
TrackRecord 1.3 fixes a number of Lion-specific rendering-issues, and we can honestly say it’s never looked better!
