#2: Recent Projects in Dropdown
Some of you have asked for a list of Recent Projects to appear first in theMove To Project dropdown. Next time you use this dropdown, you'll see the last 5 projects you assigned time to at the top of the list - with the other projects below in alphabetical order as they were previously. 
 
And don't forget you can also use the Active Search box to narrow down both lists. Just start typing the name of your Client or Projects and the list will filter automatically.
#3: New Timeline Options
The Timeline view is a play-by-play of what you did throughout the day. It'll give you a breakdown all the way down to the minute when needed.
 
We've been gradually adding additional "toggling" options to the top of the Timeline view. We now have:
  • Latest first (to flip the view to most recent entries on top)
  • Hide categorized (for time that's already been bucketed)
  • Highlight uncategorized (for time that has NOT yet been bucketed)
  • Collapse block hours (to collapse entries down to their hour blocks)
If you don't look at the Timeline view often, here's a shortcut for you: To select a group of entries in a row, hold down the Shift key while you click the start and end of your activity. That will highlight all entries in between.
 
Once you have a run of entries highlighted, you can then categorize and annotate them at the same time using the Move To Project dropdown - and they'll roll up to your Timesheet as one entry.
30-Day Free Trial, Free 1:1 Training
If it's been awhile since you looked at Chrometa, we still offer a 30-day free trial free trial along with complimentary 1:1 training sessions (click this link to schedule yours today). 
 
Any questions about what we're working on? Please reply directly to this email and let me know.
