different colors for shared & downloaded files in search
« on: November 06, 2005, 05:32:26 PM »

I think thare should be two different colors for shared files (the ones in shared dirs) and for downloaded files (the ones downloaded but now no more shared).

As of now, searching a file, a source is marked in green for shared and downloaded files.

If you just want to separate part files from completed files you can already sort by "Directory Path" in the shared files list and the two are neatly separated.

However, I really like your underlying idea of being able to separate shared files into different categories. aMule does this already really well with the category system for downloading files. It would be awesome if you could assign the shared files to different categories in a similar manner.
That would allow for a much more efficient management of your shared files. :)

I think we are talking about two different things...

I like your idea of split shared file, inside "SharedFiles" viewing, into a sort of categories.

Anyway, i'm about the search section: if you try to search a file, and one of the found source is a shared file and another one is a downloaded files (one whihc you've downloaded but now is no more shared), they are all marked in green, and that's not funny... I remember emule does mark with different colours, but don't remember which one...

Ouch, you are totally right, I guess I was a little too top-down driven here. Next time I'll wait until I'm completely awake until I post...

Your suggestion makes sense to me, sorry for the attempted hijacking of your thread. ;)
