Sorry, thanks for quick reply and your attention.
I mean, restoring all last chosen dishes on start app.
Now there three timers and every time need choose dishes, and only after that starting timers, but if dishes will be already chosen from last time when need just starting timers (fresh of course) ... or changing some dishes first, maybe
Example: I have just three dishes, but every time need to choose them...

Thanks for this really good timer.
Its will be more usable if saving previous state of dishes.
Code:
* added feature to mark dishes for preload at startup
You can mark three dishes (the amount of timers) to be preloaded at startup. Adding more will give a warning that you have reached the maximum, and you will have to deselect another dish first.

You are now referring to version 0.0.4-3 right? As I said that should be fixed in the latest 0.0.4-4. This testcase works as expected for me.

No, the context did not get lost for me, that's what I understood already
It is giving each dish an option like "overflow mode" or "overflow when counted to zero" or "count across negative values" and then give the start button and the time counter yellow colors.
When reaching zero the stop button continues to be displayed because the timer is still running (now in red color).
When the stop button is tipped the amount of overflow is shown in the time counter bar (no reset to zero) and the yellow start button appears.
little problem: the "abort alarm" function of the time counter bar collides with its "pause counting" function when counting across negative values.
-------
i've got another feature request:
I'd like to set each item of the config screen if additionally shown in the drop down menu for quicker access. "custom wav alarm" could be moved to the config screen.

- At startup loading only one or nothing...
- If set on start and then rename this dish - app will crash on startup.

Are you using russian cyrillic in the dishes? Maybe this may have an impact somewhere. Could the provide me your /home/user/.config/cooktimer/cooktimer.items content for testing purposes (mail, pastebin or whatever)?

Cyrillic - okay, it's not a problem.

Should be fixed in just uploaded version 0.0.4-6.

-------
Once a dish counter is started, you can long-press on the green/orange timer (short press will still pause the timer). It will show a banner that a stopwatch is activated. Repeating that will deactivate the set stopwatch function.
If the stopwatch function is activated and the timer countdown hits the alarm, the green timer will turn into a yellow stopwatch timer, which then can be paused or stopped.
I think that should serve the basic testing purposes you described earlier.
And a new feature is added : Qt translation support. Dutch is included, other language files could be made using the ".ts" file in /opt/cooktimer/translations/.
Version 0.0.4-9 is just uploaded to extras-devel.

what could be even better now? i recognized the following:
1. it's not fully satisfying that the countdown has no mark that shows it's in "testing mode". why not give the yellow color to the running countdown already! and furthermore switching could be able before the coundown is started and marked by a yellow start button. would that even have a better look and feel in your opinion? switch yellow switch green...
2. when pausing in testing mode a leading sign would be useful. i suggest a negative sign when countdown is paused (that would be the amount of time you have to subtract) and a positive sign when stopwatch is paused.
3. switching stopwatch on/off can be disabled when the stopwatch is already running.
... just ideas
btw i'm just using it already, thanks again.
------
and i found minor bugs but it's getting late, so i'll report them at another time.

All times are GMT. The time now is 12:22.
But I don't get your point. Do you mean restoring the remaining dish time of a run you stopped?
I always want to start with a fresh timer, as I never resume cooking a half cooked dish the next day
Maybe if you give a practical example so I can understand what you you are getting at.
