Troubleshooting

Show timers applet in Cinnamon

Technical Information

Have a look at the contrib directory to get a little insight into the different scripting possibilities!

Unix/Linux

• Workrave uses dconf to store its configuration. dconf-editor can be used to explore and manipulate the values - be careful!
• Workrave can receive dbus signals. Explore by having a look at the example python script or viewing in qdbusviewer (part of the qttools5-dev-tools package in Ubuntu).

In both of these, workrave is found under the org.workrave key.
