Wish List / Can't open web links for SRBase
February 01, 2026, 09:54:46 AM
When right-clicking on the SRBase project (or a task belonging to it) and selecting the "www" option, the internal pop-up window containing the project links fails to appear. No additional button is created in the taskbar, and the UI does not seem to trigger the window at all.
�Observations:
�This appears to be project-specific. The "www" menu opens correctly for other projects (e.g., Einstein@Home, World Community Grid).
�I have tried restarting BoincTasks JS via the system tray, but the behavior persists for SRBase.
�It seems like a script or parsing error occurs when handling the specific URL/XML data returned by the SRBase server.

This shows the collapsed set:



This shows part of the expanded set, where we see GPU tasks in grey and CPU tasks in black:



#3
Milkyway @ home is mainly multithreaded.
#4


The numbers in brackets indicate less than 100% of 4 threads in use.  The correct answer should be 82%, by calculating (CPU time / wall time / CPU threads) * 100

I think what you might have done is forget to divide by the CPU threads, which gives 328%, which was then capped at 100%.

Wish List / Re: Detach project is missing

Thanks, I keep forgetting to look down there.  Although you do seem to duplicate these in the right click context menu, perhaps you should add detach?

Wish List / Detach project is missing

I cannot find a way to detach a project, I expected it in the context menu when I right click a project in the projects tab.

Wish List / Re: Not all android settings available

But on the phone I can change battery percentage to crunch at, why is it not displayed in boinctasks.js?

I cannot change for example the minimum battery level in here.

Wish List / Re: Incorrect core usage displayed

I just shoved that in because the CPU isn't needed for a lot of maths apps, the GPU handles it itself, and I don't think Boinc would accept "0".  So would 0.01 be "nicer"?

Thanks for all your effort, Boinc is horrid without Boinctasks!

I'd donate but I don't have spare cash.

Boinc seems to work with this number, and your original Boinctasks displayed the 0.001 correctly.

Wish List / Project order is case sensitive
December 27, 2025, 01:41:53 AM
When I go to the tasks tab, and sort by project name, the projects beginning with a capital letter are listed first.

Wish List / Right click for WWW
December 27, 2025, 12:41:38 AM
Currently I have to go into the projects tab and right click LHC to get to their website, in the original Boinctasks, I could right click a task of theirs.

Wish List / CPU time in brackets
December 26, 2025, 11:48:42 PM
I miss the 2h (1h33) in the elapsed column in Boinctasks original.  I can't find a way to add the actual CPU time in brackets, I just see the wall time.  I assume Boinctasks.js can see it, as it's using it to calculate the CPU column as a percentage.
