RSIbreak plasmoid

I'm trying to use RSIbreak, but I can't configure it because there are not options to be configured at the Preferences window. I also don't know how to start/stop the time counters of RSIbreak, I suppose it's automatic once you've configured the options. But no options here.

Installed version: rsibreak-0.11-4.fc15.i686

I attach 2 screenshots: the plasmoid, and the Preferences window.

Comment 2 Fdor 2011-10-04 14:46:39 UTC
I've just discovered that there is another way to launch RSIbreak: At the Start (KDE) menu, search for "rsibreak", click on the result, and then a violet clock is added to the systray. If you right click on the violet clock, then you can access the real Preferences window, where you can set up the time for the counters and more.

So there are 2 methods to lauch RSIbreak:
- By adding the RSIbreak plasmoid to the desktop/panel.
- By searching at the KDE main menu, and adding RSIbreak clock icon to the systray.

The first method doesn't allow to configure the app. The second method does. Perhaps the first method should launch automatically the second method? Or perhaps it should ask the user to launch it?

You need to run the main rsibreak application to configure it, and provide the datasource for the plasma applet, ie, running the plasma applet by itself doesn't do much (as you discovered).
