I like DC++ very much, and it would be cool for it to have some (a bit sillyer) settings like CZDC++ has (colors, fonts, sounds, etc...).
And one more thing, it would be really nice to have DC++ remember the order and size of the categories in the search window (like User, Connection, Size, Slots, Hub, Path, etc...).
Thanx!

Re: DC++ more settings
I say no to this. Vanilla DC++ is more about powerful backend than nifty flashing lights. That's something that should stay in modland.Longhorn wrote:I like DC++ very much, and it would be cool for it to have some (a bit sillyer) settings like CZDC++ has (colors, fonts, sounds, etc...).
from the setting file (DCPlusPlus.xml):And one more thing, it would be really nice to have DC++ remember the order and size of the categories in the search window (like User, Connection, Size, Slots, Hub, Path, etc...).
Code: Select all
<SearchFrameOrder type="string">0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10</SearchFrameOrder>
<SearchFrameWidths type="string">399,100,78,80,408,42,70,150,96,100,310</SearchFrameWidths>

Re: DC++ more settings
Colors implies a richedit chat control, which DC++ won't get any time soon (or at all, in all likely hood).PseudonympH wrote:I say no to this. Vanilla DC++ is more about powerful backend than nifty flashing lights. That's something that should stay in modland.
It shouldn't be. But if you have multiple search windows, the sizes from the last one closed will be the one that's saved. I think this may cause user confusion, but is completely intuitive once you know that there's only one setting for the search window sizes, and the sizes are saved when closing the window.PseudonympH wrote:This might be just a BCDC++ thing since that's what I'm actually using, but I can't imagine why it wouldn't have been patched back to vanilla.

True, though even re-reading the original post with that as the meaning doesn't quite fit.BigDil wrote:I think the guy meant remembering what column the results were ordered by, too. This would be a nice feature. Same thing in download queue window.
Storing sort order for closed windows is a request in the old feature tracker, but nobody has put it in the new tracker (and thus, nobody's voted for it).
