Hi,

Timeless Time & Expense is very useful -- I've been using it on and off for a few years now...

There are a couple of annoying wrinkles that I imagine have pretty easy fixes:

1) add an option for the application to go to the system tray when closed, in the same as it does on minimize. Honestly, the number of times I've hit the close button and then thought "huh? where'd it go?" Lots of other system tray applications do this, and it would be nice if TT&E did too.

2) make it possible for the application to start minimized, on Windows startup, showing as just the system tray icon and nothing else. At the moment I have it set to start on Windows startup by including it in my startup folder in my start menu. I have set the shortcut properties to "Run Minimized". So TT&E starts minimized, but for some reason on startup it ignores the fact that I have "Hide When Minimized" set, and so I get the system tray icon and also a taskbar entry. You have to click the taskbar entry to restore the application, then click to minimize the app at which point it hides the taskbar entry. This is really annoying after the first eight thousand times :-)

There. I got it off my chest now :-)

Jason,

Yes, we are looking to address these annoyances in the next major release.  That release is in active development.  We are currently concentrating our efforts on the web version, but will start the Windows version soon with a planned simultaneous release.
