rafi Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 ...and maybe also - the total sum of their sizes - similar to Windows explorer status bar. This can apply also to some tabs - like the files' tab, or even the peers' tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 OK... which § of the status bar would you suggest? The one which shows Up speeds; Down speeds; DHT; Download limited?Maybe the far-left.. I don't think anything ever shows there does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 look at Windows explorer - for the total # selected - they use the most left corner (good for us). For total sizes - they use the more to the right position. I suggest the position left to the DHT nodes.edit:oh, and when you select a single item - they display more data on it, which is not a bad idea for us too. - Display the torrent added/completed on times, size etc... usually those are on the far right side and you (I) have to scroll to see them. This way you don't have to scroll.and if you want to be perfect - let the use define what he like to see in the status line... edit(2):oh, and if nothing is selected you show total #/DLing/Seeding + total sizes/total DLing-size/etc... (or total or remaning DLed/seeded size) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 ... No.Raw data about size, MAYBE. Extra data.... which already exists in a listview, useless bloat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 you are entitled to your opinion as am I. I say - yes - it's a good idea and not bloat, it's info that makes life more convenient (no scrolling etc). No totals are in the list view. Also Windows explorer sets most of the standards here... so why not in the status bas as well ? ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F u r u y á Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 I just want to be able to quickly see how many torrents I am seeding! Manually counting is really annoying (when you have 20+ seeding torrents...)... I just want to go to Completed label, select the torrents I am seeding, and see the number of selected torrents in the far left status bar! Some of rafi ideias would be nice too.

jewelisheaven Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 ... right but TBQH, you have the tray icon which already shows your global total, and if you're only displaying a subset of it it's not a large task to count by hand is it? Especially with the alternate-colouring in the listview. You may be in a pickle as far as only selecting "Completed" in the category pane. As it is, you only have the active vs. inactive ways to distinguish, therefore if you've got 20 actively seeding torrents but only 8 are transferring data, you either have the option of only showing the 8 actively transferring or ALL completed torrents :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F u r u y á Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Oh I haven't noticed that tray icon shows me the number of seeding torrents! That solves my problem.... thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 I still think putting some data in that not-used space would be handy Now what to put there. Maybe a total size like some people asked elsewhere. Glad to point out something you never knew before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F u r u y á Posted May 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 Yea, I agree that the far left status bar would be used for something useful and helpful... I'm waiting to see something in there in next uT versions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
