Re: [O] problems with continuous clocking

[Hildegund Mythenmetz]

Hmm,

I was expecting that the functionality helps me in avoiding the need to fix clocks manually.. Perhaps I misunderstand the feature?

If I deactivate org-clock-continuously, I get the following question when logging in : "You stopped another clock x minutes ago; start this one from then?". If I answer with "Yes" the system clocks me in "correctly" (i.e. at the time of the last clock out". I thought, that "org-clock-continuously" automates this behaviour (basically answering "yes" automatically)

If org-clock-continuously does not do this, how can I achieve this?

All the best,

Andreas

I don't think you can work in the past. Usually I fix clock manually.
