always on top

Post by techyguy » 2003-02-22 23:20

I'm a complete noob when it comes to coding, but i'd love to see an always on top option for the public hub list window. it would help alot when i'm joining a bunch of hubs at once and the hub windows pop up in the way of the hub list window. thx

Well... as you can't connect to more than one hub at a time using the normal DC++ client and its public hub list window, I fail to see how this could be relevant for DC++.

An always on top feature for any window (including the favorite hubs window) would be good, though. Or was this what you really wanted?

Naah, he just wants to leech in every 700 hubs on the list, and opening those all by doubleclicking them one by one and getting back to the hublist takes too much time.

i agree with this idea for dc++, and would like to see it implemented. cuz when im bouncing around servers looking for a certain file this is a great thing to have. also, a close all windows or dont allow popup button would be nice, those popups the hubs have annoy the hell outta me

If they're typical hub messages (from someone who's not online), you must have "Popup messages from users that are not online" checked. Just uncheck it. You could turn off "Popup Private messages" too.

Point taken about allowing new windows to not take the focus, though.
