First impression of BT 0.26

[Corsair]

hi all,

there has been quite big improvements in this version, some doubts:
- why two same buttons with Projects, tasks, messages and transfers??
- about the computers, there should be something like a tree with an
"all computers", because in other way if we want to see all then after
being in other windows you have to use the "ctrl" or "shift" with the mouse.
- there is a little misalignment between the button and the line where is located.
- in the transfer tab, I thing the sorting by the % doesn't work correctly,
  now I can't check.
- the exchange of colour pale, dark of row still doesn't work.

the thing is going really well.

I think the bar turn turned out to be an improvement. I had some doubts but it worked out pretty well.

1 - You mean the toolbar and the view selection bar?
I'm thinking of making yet another bar that fits over the computer bar. With all the ones that are missing in the view selection bar.
2 - I'm not a fan of tries, because it makes the bar larger. It's less fancy but more practical. Click Shift is the easy way. But a way to select all of them. But I could place a computer icon on top to select all computers with one click. So just above the text and move the text somewhat lower.
3 - More specific, what button and what line.
4 - I've seen it but I have to wait for some project probably SETI to get upload problems. It's not so easy to test otherwise.
5 - Is still in the list.

I'v been trying out this program since v0.20 , and I like it!

With v0.26 however, the combined window only displays 1 computer while
previous versions showed all 8 (on my LAN).

This is under WinXP, if it matters.

Thanks that you like BoincTasks.

Activate the computer bar: View->Computer bar.
And select all computer Click first, Shift Click last.
I did that for V 0.26, but in V 0.27 (working) I changed it back to all selected, with a tree selection.

For me, the View->Computer Bar is always greyed out.

The program will display all computers with each in its own window, however.

1 - Tool bar and View selection bar has the same buttons: Tasks, Projects, transfer, Messages.
3 - "View Selection Bar" the butons are not correctly vertically centred.
