Description Richard Laager 2006-04-20 05:41:26 UTC
Please describe the problem:
If you right-click on the typing break indicator and choose "Take a Break", the
change your mind and hit "Postpone break", the reminders start immediately.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Right-click on the typing break indicator in the notification area
2. Choose "Take a Break"
3. Click "Postpone Break"


Actual results:
After 3 minutes, I get a reminder.

Expected results:
The same behavior as if I hadn't completed these steps -- I should get the break
after my normal timer expires, and reminders if and only if I postpone that break.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
Make sure you have it set to allow you to postpone breaks, or this isn't
relevant, and thus not reproducible. :)

I've had this problem too, which is especially annoying when hitting "Take a break" by accident.

Basically, if a user triggers a break, it should have a Cancel rather than Postpone option.
