Hmm,

I was expecting that the functiona= lity helps me in avoiding the need to fix clocks manually.. Perhaps I misun= derstand the feature?

If I deactivate org-clock-co= ntinuously, I get the following question when logging in : "You stoppe= d another clock x minutes ago; start this one from then?". If I answer= with "Yes" the system clocks me in "correctly" (i.e. a= t the time of the last clock out". I thought, that "org-clock-con= tinuously" automates this behaviour (basically answering "yes&quo= t; automatically)

If org-clock-continuously does not do this, how can I a= chieve this?

All the best,
Andreas

I don't think you can work in the past. Usually I fix clock= manually.
