- Status: could be replaced by icons - Numbers should be right aligned: Matter of preference, doesn't save any space - The i in GiB, MiB, KiB: That is a global KDE setting, which you can modify (system settings -> Locale -> Country/Region and Language -> Other -> Byte size units) - The progress bar text: That is the style, which renders progress bars in that manner - Renaming Downloaded and Uploaded to Up and Down: The amount of bytes is often longer then the header text - Renaming Share Ratio to ratio: Share Ratio is something specific, ratio isn't. You can have a ratio for many things. - Hiding more items by default: Could be done > doesn't save any space Yes > Matter of preference Don't agree - numbers are much easier to read when they are right aligned (and even more, if they are decimal separator aligned). You can see Gnumeric, OOo Calc, MS Excel and others as an example - they all use right alignment for numbers. Yes, I know that it may be tricky to implement this but it will significantly improve usability. > The i in GiB, MiB, KiB: That is a global KDE setting Thanks, understood (I'm KDE newbie yet, so I didn't knew that feature). > - The progress bar text: That is the style, which renders progress bars in that manner Understood. I think I'll inform Cleanlooks developers about this problem. > Share Ratio is something specific, ratio isn't. You can have a ratio for many things. Agreed, but I bet that all torrent users exactly know what ratio we are talking about. Git commit 91f9681d7b1808367001ec150b5637c1b40963ac by Joris Guisson. Committed on 05/11/2011 at 17:16. Pushed by guisson into branch 'master'. - Merge status and name column into one column and use icons to show the status - Right align numbers in torrent view BUG: 272160 BUG: 228564 M +1 -0 ChangeLog M +4 -1 ktorrent/view/view.cpp M +139 -88 ktorrent/view/viewmodel.cpp M +1 -1 ktorrent/view/viewmodel.h http://commits.kde.org/ktorrent/91f9681d7b1808367001ec150b5637c1b40963ac It became very uncomfortable. Now, to see a torrent with the status of "seeding", I need to see the band torrent, not seeing at the same time remaining. Before, I could just make a sort of status, to see how many and which torrents with status "seeding", scroll through the list, select the engine and run it. Now these simple steps become more confusing and complicated. And now I do not see the total number of torrents, the number distributed and the number of downloads. |
