BobJohnson33 Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 this is against the "keep it simple" rule...Maybe so - but couldn't it be something you could have as an option ? e.g. Either display settings the same for all categories (as it is now) or separate settings for each category. I know people with xga screens that struggle to display stats efficiently & I imagine this could make the GUI much crisper for them. No one likes having a horizontal slider !

PabUK Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Those are the same changes as the (non-public) builds 429 and 430, that's why he said it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpler=to the dev ! I like that idea too, but let ludde get the stable official PE+PEX out first. Why don't you put it in the features requests thread ? So it will have a better change (= to get berried... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonGato Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Oh, well... it's easy they made changes not worth a changelog.Anyway, nice to see some sorting for history in RSS but I miss the sort for Favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafi Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 DonGato, there IS sort for Favorites (strangely implemented though...). Try it in B 431 - just drag the items up&down ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hofshi Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 changes between 431 and 430:smaller tab icons in 431431 is 1kB less in size then 430. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boo Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 the latest beta is 152.21 KB so this texy on the homepage should be changed =the program itself is contained within a single executable less than 150 KB in size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ev0| Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 wow..smaller tab icons are better. Man, this thing has got to be close to 1.5.. lets roll it out because the disparity between the 'stable' build and this one is pretty large now.

Thanks... better than nothing. I spent some minutes reordering but now is much easier to find something in the long list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted February 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 rafi: he's already done with PE and PEX, and everything else. It's been final touchups and other misc bugfixes for the last few days now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafi Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Firon: I understand, and that's what I meant - get the PE+PEX version out-as "stable", before other "improvements"-features. ( like - this nice one: http://img504.imageshack.us/my.php?image=utorrent1wf.jpgor that: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=158441#p158441)Personally - I would like to see as many bugs as possible fixed before 1.5 is out, and my "favorite"-most-wanted bug is right here: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=6302 on the TBD list (To Be Done...) and the related wish-list here: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=55358#p55358Some of which are as simple as 5 min, of work for RSS-help button-link, or 10 min to code sorting of feeds - cut&paste from sorting of favorites... Having said that, you know my opinion, that uT should NOT publish 1.5 until Az publishes their next release, and I think you know why (to have less users complain of hash-problems) . Until then - fix as many bugs as you can... So, I cross my fingers that Az will be delayed, 'you' will be wise enough to wait for it, and ludde will, then, have the time for my RSS-bug+wish list ... How is that for a work-plan ? Ah, yes, BTW I almost forgot my latest suggestion (GUI) : touchups/reorganize the main menu:New: Tools->RSS,Speed-Wizard,options/pref.New: View->toolbars->... , icons-on-tabsCancel: Options->and ... ctrl-tab - cycle/moveto next tab...All - nice-to-have if only time-to-Az permits ...RSS is not an option any more... it's a tool...

hofshi Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 great GUI suggestions. The client will look more professional with these standard menus.Edit: rafi, I think that in your second link, you meant to link to a different place.

bellicose Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 431 is definitely a better beta, and i turned on again the icon for tabs. much better looking now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynetman Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 There is still a small bug.If "move completed downloads" is set and 2 torrents have been created by the author with same folder name, utorrent refuses to move the second torrent that completes and moves only the first torrent files.Files and folder of the second remain in "new downloads" folder.

durerca Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 The changelog says "Switch default theme", does this just mean that Ludde has switched the theme that shows up when users open uTorrent without any custom toolbar.bmp and tstatus.bmp?I thought maybe there is a new feature in uTorrent that lets you choose what theme to use instead of relying on users to add modified files. Just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1c3d0g Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 It means he switched the default theme to something much better-looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 lol maybe the changelog should read "Switched default theme"... though it's already a given that it's not a new feature, since (1) the feature set is frozen for the next stable, and (2) it says "Change:" and not "Feature:"...Bah whatever =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
