It could be a fabulous tool (especially since it's really missing natively in GC) but it's weirdly bugged. The displayed duration is 1.2 times the written duration. i.e. when one writes (5h), 6h gets displayed. (and same for all durations). Too bad !! Or maybe it can be fixed ?

This is what I need. Huge thanks for the author. Color Coding for task is definitely a need. For example, I'm currently working in 2 project simultaneously, I want to adjust 2 unique colors for 2 different projects in order to quick scan. Anw, thanks again for your extension!
