little color dots for connection speed

Post by probalaci » 2003-11-23 08:52

hi,


i'm still using the 0.18 version of the dc++ because of one thing: i
don't like the "system icons" in the "Search" window of the newer
versions. :(

what i mean: in the 0.18 dc++ there were little color balls before the username (in the search window), each color for the different connection speeds (ie. green for T1/T3, yellow for Cable/ISDN/DSL and red for 56k and others). it was a quiet useful thing because u could see the con. speed directly! (i know there is a column for the speed but it's much more easier with these color dots) :)


wouldn't You put back that "feature" in the next version?
(maybe You could make more colors, different to all speeds)

thx and bye, laci

The only icons in the search manager are the file icons from explorer (unless you turned that option off)... I'd prefer for those not to be replaced with possibly misleading red/yellow/green dots.

yes, but i do hate these "file icons"...

and of course i'd prefer the replacement as an option - for those the dots are not misleading ;)
