Can the Clock GUI have a loop checkbox so users need not restart the timer every time it goes off?

I have the metronome on my Jolla, but when I need to time longer repeating fixed intervals precisely I cannot. A single check box in the Clock's timer settings could rectify this. Better still would be a bar graph interface denoting time elapsed and custom alerts, to enable relative, scheduled, named alerts/alarms/notifications. Bar height would indicate alarm volume and such alarm sets might be made copiable to a calendar for running alarm sets on arbitrary dates at given start times. The obvious use case is for users who want to develop or enhance their habits and routines, who want some help in critical early, habit-forming stages... study, exercise, reading, writing, mails, calls, etc.

These interdependent rescheduling capabilities would ideally be able to fit themselves around fixed or other defined scheduled items, like meetings, meals and sleep defined in the calendar.

Which dbus parameters get/put alarm settings in the Clock & Calendar?

Update: I tried $ dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest ination=com.nokia.mce.signal.alarm_ui_feedback.ind 0 and something is amiss. Can someone suggest a correct way to interact with jolla-clock and mce timer functionality via dbus?


This (100% success, 2/2 so far) captures dbus-monitor output to a variable (1) then outputs its value to a file (2). The output of dbus-monitor is all on one line, so I will try sed to fit some line breaks in. So, in Fingerterm:

signals=$(dbus-monitor);echo $signals>>signals

(I didn't manage to make a composite command in the way that might otherwise have been intuitive; echo $(dbus-monitor)>>signals)

To progress towards an answer to the Clock puzzle below, I want to find out if dbus can send signals (instructions) to the Clock process so a named alarm or timer gets set up there.


GUIs on Jolla don't countdown with repeats. Two integer fields in the Clock's timer edit settings could allow multiple looping countdowns as well as current non-repeating ones. Static regular scheduling is notably absent from the Calendar GUI too.

They would show active loops and their loop sequences and counts. Related QML is here on the Jolla phone:

file:///usr/share/jolla-clock/pages/main/TimerItem.qml

An editable bar graph could show running time and custom alerts, to let users control irregular event notifications and logs. It allows start dependencies like previous counts or times completing, queueing of relative, scheduled, named alerts/alarms/notifications. Bar height can indicate alarm volume and such alarm sets might be made available in a calendar, to have alarm groups run on arbitrary dates and times. This may suit any user who has an activity that needs various cues but whose start is not precisely known. It can include any scheduled event, too, that starts early or late.
