foraneagle2 Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 In the Add new torrent window, it would be lovely to be able to sort the files by column ("Name" or "Size") when deselecting which files to download: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 I cannot agree more.And thanks for the great job! I've thrown away Bitcomet.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjobo Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Well the Name column is always sorted... And for the size column, why would need to sort that? Practical example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Example:sometimes a BT mission includes, say, 30 large files, and also one description file for each of them.....that is 60 files.Usually we'd like to download the 30 descriptions first, read them, in order to decide which large files to be downloaded.The problem is, if they are name sorted, it'll be hard to select the 30 descriptions...

Smoovious Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 not that hard... I mean, come on...besides... strictly speaking, it isn't Name sorted... it is torrent-order sorted... the files and paths are presented in the order they are found in the .torrent file, in piece-order...It just so happens that the vast majority of .torrent builders, add the files alphabetically.-- Smoovious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldostools Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 I always wanted this feature.... but I found a workaround: 1- In the "Add new torrent window", press "Select None" and press "OK".2- Select the torrent and in the files tab, sort the files by size, name or %.3- Right click on the files that you want to download and select "Normal Priority".Only the selected files will start downloading... after the download is complete, you can select the rest of the files and set them to "Normal Priority" to download the rest of the torrent.
