gakera Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 The subject does a pretty good job of describing what I'm suggesting, but let me try to tell you about why I think so (and perhaps convince you of it's merit)I'm "perma-seeding" some torrents and as such have no interest in viewing their status. I mainly want to see which torrents I'm downloading or have recently finished downloading. As such the sort by "completed on" would be ideal to achieve this, however it files torrents with no such date (e.g. torrents currently downloading) below the oldest torrents, which seems illogical and mildly inconvenient.

jewelisheaven Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I think the problem may be NULL isn't the same as blank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gakera Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 And clicking the column again doesn't do what you want?No, I felt I had made this sufficiently clear. As it is now, sorted by "Completed on": Currently downloading torrents on top, youngest completed torrents at the bottom: #1 Currently downloading torrent#2 Torrent completed weeks ago#3 Torrent completed yesterdayClicking again only reverses the order: Youngest completed torrents on top, currently downloading torrents on bottom.What I'm suggesting, when you sort by "Completed on":Currently downloading torrents on top, Oldest completed torrents on bottom:#1 Currently downloading torrent#2 Torrent completed yesterday#3 Torrent completed weeks agoThat way, when a torrent becomes completed, it doesnt jump to the bottom of the list.Unless that somehow makes sense to you... I don't think it makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 sort by status, hold shift and secondary sort by completed on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 It's not very obvious, it's only mentioned in the FAQ and manual. There's no way to really make it obvious in the UI, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
