Writing Statistics
|
||||
******************
|
||||
|
||||
When you work on a project, a log file records when you opened it, when you closed it, and the
|
||||
total word counts of your novel documents and notes at the end of the session, provided that the
|
||||
session lasted either more than 5 minutes, or that the total word count changed. For more details
|
||||
about the log file, see :ref:`docs_technical_storage`.
|
||||
|
||||
A tool to view the content of the log file is available in the **Tools** menu under **Writing
|
||||
Statistics**. You can also launch it by pressing :kbd:`F6`, or find it on the sidebar.
|
||||
|
||||
The tool will show a list of all your sessions, and a set of filters to apply to the data. You can
|
||||
also export the filtered data to a JSON file or to a CSV file that can be opened by a spreadsheet
|
||||
application like for instance Libre Office Calc or Excel.
|
||||
|
||||
.. versionadded:: 1.2
|
||||
|
||||
As of version 1.2, the log file also stores how much of the session time was spent idle. The
|
||||
definition of idle here is that the novelWriter main window loses focus, or the user hasn't made
|
||||
any changes to the currently open document in five minutes. The number of minutes can be altered
|
||||
in **Preferences**.

||||

Session Timer
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
A session timer is by default visible in the status bar. The icon will show you a clock icon when
|
||||
you are active, and a pause icon when you are considered "idle" per the criteria mentioned above.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not wish to see the timer, you can click on it once to hide it. The icon will still be
|
||||
visible. Click the icon once more to display the timer again.
|
||||
|
||||
.. versionadded:: 2.6
|
||||
|
||||
As of version 2.6, clicking the timer text or icon in the status bar will toggle its visibility.
