Time Out! 1.5.4
Dejal Time Out! will gently remind you to take a break on a regular basis more>> Dejal Time Out! will gently remind you to take a break on a regular basis
Time Out! - Break reminder tool with micro-breaks!
Dejal Time Out! will gently remind you to take a break on a regular basis. It is very easy to fall into bad habits when using a computer for hours on end.
You care about what you are doing, so can sometimes push yourself too far, or over-strain yourself. The human body isnt built to sit in one position for endless hours, gripping a mouse or typing on the keyboard. Dejal Time Out! is here to help.
Time Out! has two kinds of breaks: a Normal break, typically for 10 minutes after 50 minutes of work, so you can move about and relax, plus a Micro break: a very brief pause of typically 10 seconds every 10 minutes, so you can remember not to tense up too much for long periods.
Enhancements
- Replaced the use of an undocumented routine to check the idle time with an approved one, to fix compatibility with Snow Leopard.
- Updated the bundled Adium scripts to support the current versions of the Adium instant messaging client, thanks to Nic Munroe. Note: if you used a previous version of Time Out, the scripts wont be replaced, in case youve customized them. You can download the updated scripts from the Time Out Extras site.
- Fixed an issue with the Preferences window, where edits might not be saved when quitting with the window still open (specifically when an edit is still active).
- Removed the old crash reporter, since it doesnt support Leopard crash logs.
- Now requires a minimum of Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger).
Time Out 1.5.4

Time Out 1.5.4 is a product helping you to give up the bad habits when using a computer for hours on end. You care about what you are doing, so can sometimes push yourself too far, or over-strain yourself. The human body isn't built to sit in one position for endless hours, gripping a mouse or typing on the keyboard. Dejal Time Out is here to help. It will gently remind you to take a break on a regular basis.
Time Out has two kinds of breaks: a "Normal" break, typically for 10 minutes after 50 minutes of work, so you can move about and relax, plus a "Micro" break: a very brief pause of typically 10 seconds every 10 minutes, so you can remember not to tense up too much for long periods.
You can configure how long each kind of break lasts, and how long between breaks, or disable each kind. Each Time Out is announced via the screen slowly dimming, with related graphics materializing, and when the break is complete, it fades out again. You can change the time these transitions take... and you can even change the color and the level of transparency during the break. So if you like, you can make it mostly transparent so you can continue reading while on your break... though it's better for you if you give your eyes a rest during the Time Out.
At the start and/or end of the break, you can optionally play a sound, and even run an Automator workflow, AppleScript, or application.
Time Out is released as Freeware. You are welcome to use it at no cost.

GCWindowMenu
Turn any view into a pop-up more>> Turn any view into a pop-up
GCWindowMenu is a free utility that offers a simple solution to turning any view into a pop-up menu. Includes example code to show use with a standard NSSlider.
How it works: You create an instance of GCWindowMenu, then you add the main content view to it (a slider control, or whatever you like - in fact the creation of the window and supplying the view is one class method call), then you call one class method to handle the rest - positioning it, popping it up on screen, tracking it and then finally fading it away quickly but gracefully at the end.
GCWindowMenu endeavours to emulate the standard menu behaviour - if you click once quickly to bring it up, it will stay on screen and you can click and drag in it. If you click and hold, it will stay up as long as the mouse is down.
Standard view mouse event handling methods are called while the menu is being tracked, so by and large you can easily design a view to work in any situation - in a window or in a menu. For standard control views, there are a few additional minor kinks, since those views implement their own tracking loops. At present their design means that depending on how you position the menu, you may not be able to use the click-hold-release method with some kinds of controls. GCWindowMenu tries to do the right thing, and has some flags you can set to change the behaviour.GCWindowMenu only implements the menu, not the widget that triggers it. However, the example code in the download shows one simple way to handle this - as youll see its just a very small effort.
System requirements:
- Xcode
