# History Box

This simple dialog shows the tasks that have been executed by the scheduler in reaction to conditions.

![HistoryBox](graphics/when-history.png)

The list, representing the last completed tasks in descending time order (that is, the first row shows the most recent task), shows the following information:

* _Time_: the time at which the task started running
* _Task_: the name of the executed task
* _Triggered By_: the name of the condition that triggered the task
* _Duration_: the duration of the task, in seconds
* _OK_: a sign indicating the outcome: a checkmark for a positive outcome, a cross for a negative one, the empty set sign for undetermined results
* _Message_: additional information provided by **whenever**

The history box does not capture results in real time, but the _Reload_ button can be used to update its contents instantly. Only the latest 100 results are displayed -- this might become a configurable parameter in further versions.
