Some defaults and small changes...
Posted: 25 Aug 2009 14:27Could we...
... by default set the little bandwidth monitor in the same row as the menus (little icons in windowed mode), instead of setting it by default (and after every skin/language change) in its own row?
... by default set the row where all opened windows are displayed on top of the window area instead of putting it below the area? (directly below the window display menus)
... change the default icon for changing languages to somethign more recognizable, as it is very difficult for somebody not knowing Shareaza to find the language selection if he has by chance choosen a wrong language? Maybe an UN flag or something composed of half an english flag and half a gray undefined flag (separated by a diagonal bar from one corner to another).
... make that a second click on the IRC icon (windowed mode) makes disappear the IRC window again, as it is the case for every other window? (1st click: window appears; 2nd click: window disappears again)
... add the "download bandwidth" and the "upload bandwidth" graph by default to the graph window (additionnal to the total generic down-/upload graphs) with a slightly little brighter color (e.g. "total generic download" = dark green; "download bandwidth" = lighter green etc.)
All of these are things that sould be relatively easy to do and make the overall impression of Shareaza better...

EDIT: I'd like to add a small feature request: A counter of the total amount of outgoing and incomming data since the first run of Shareaza. The idea behind this is to show the in/out ratio on the front/home page and display it in green (resp. red) background according to which is bigger, download or upload.
