Allow using "empty" segments for templates that only populate with times once you press start

[rlopeznegrete]

I have a predefined template for my daily notes. I'd love to be able to add a time tracker with pre-defined segments to each daily note:

for example, segments for each project and for that specific day:

project 1 - 2/13/2025
project 2 - 2/13/2025

that way I can keep track of time spent on each project on a daily basis. Also, is there a way to find time trackers/segments for which I may have forgotten to press stop? That way I can also show them on my daily note to stop them.

thanks!

Hi! To add a time tracker with pre-defined segments, you can simply add a tracker to a note, set it up like you want, and then copy the JSON data to a template.

If you want the segments to start out empty, you can use the edit button to set both times to the same time. Unfortunately, there's not currently a way to make it so that a segment doesn't have any time saved in it. It might be nice to have a feature in the future where an "empty" segment would allow pressing Play on it, causing it to actually populate with data though!
