Transmission

Does Tomato still open a new widow for each torrent though? That gets on my nerves, would rather have everything in one place.

Yeah I find that very annoying about Tomato Torrent too, next to it's name and matching icon that is. :p

Does it remember the position of the window now?

Cool, excellent news!

Thanks for the heads up :D

Very nice... but does it have support for blacklisting IPs from a database like PeerGuardian or something?

Sure np.

Yesterday I made this future Transmission look mockup. The current toolbar buttons don't really match Unified if you ask me, so that's why I requested Mail like buttons.

So far Transmission's GUI guy seems to like the idea and is looking into it. :cool:

P.S.

The badgets are just a placeholder. Altho the Delete and Preference ones look fine to me.

^ that looks really good, that should definitely be the GUI, but i the only way IMO that transmission will be perfect as soon as it gets trackerless support, that's why azureus will never leave my comp, it starts all of the stubborn torrent files

Then don't forget to support my idea here:

The developers really seem to listen to people, so just request the feature on their forums.Transmission is only few months old so I'm positive more advanced features will appear in later versions. :)

I like it :)

My suggestion would be to move the icons over to the left a little (so they aren't centered) & have a green plus sign for add torrent rather than white. I like the current info button (blue circle with white i). I wonder if that would work inside the mail style glassy button or not?

Good work so far :)

[.Neo]

You should make those badges if my idea is really pushed through.

There is a problem tho, the way Mail handles those toolbar buttons seems to be undocumented so the developers don't have a clue of how to program them into the application. :/

[rajputwarrior]

couldn't you just extract them and use them?

[.Neo]

??

No normal toolbar buttons work very different from the ones Mail uses:

-One button with three different sections;

-Mouse over state;

-Inactive state.

You can't just paste in the image resources and expect Transmission to display the combined buttons like Mail does.

The different states is something we can worry about later, but first someone needs to figure out how to combine three buttons into one.

What about a stop button? Or does clicking 'Remove' once stop the torrent then clicking again remove it?

[.Neo]

I would download and use the application first if I where you. ;)
