"That's one fancy looking UI. Well done.

The glow effect is really nice, as are the seconds LEDs and the embossing."

Thanks this was my very first custom GUI graphics so I was learning how to
make those things (I had no idea how to make glow with blender when I
started or how to animate those leds circularly without creating them one
by one) as I was learning Morphic.

"I was somewhat confused by the enabling/disabling of the stopwatch"

Yeah you are not the only one, but these are the challanges of GUI , to
create something that makes sense not only to me , but to other users too.
Again an area I have a lot to learn.

"
In the pomodoro timer I use you can enter a description of where you are
working on. Do you plan to add something like that?"

I am planning a lot of things for this tool, its not a v 0.1 out of
coincidence afterall ;) Descriptions of tasks are one of the things others
are

1) Calendar where you can view completed tasks, weekly , monthly and
yearly. That also means the addition not only of daily goals, but also
monthly and yearly goals.
2) the ability to rate your performance for each task
3) Roassal graphs that show your progress in your work of completing the
tasks and the quality of your work compared to your ratings
4) A reward sytem working like an RPG level up system which tracks your
progress
5) export your stats to a JSON format that can easily be imported in other
images so you dont lose your progress
6) share your progress with others and collaborate on same tasks via google
calendar
7) Improving the GUI and offering alternative skins and GUIs to fit the
preferences of users
8) the ability to fire up multiple timers at the same time and control them
from a single GUI
9) Sharing your tasks with others without leaving the image
10) Alert sounds for breaks
11) Better re-sizing ability that does not rely on halos
12) much more

"I noticed you're performing actions on mouse down not up."

for me its feels more natural for the button to act when pressed than when
its released, does that create any issues with pharo ?
