<P>Oh, I see. Well, my feeling is that the toolbar is pretty essential. There isn't a respectable program out there that doesn't have one and when we make these UI changes, I intend to load it up with a few more buttons.</P>
<P>Not that you don't already have enough work on your plate, but would creating a UserControl that mimics the toolbar be too much?</P>

<DIV></DIV>&gt;I can't get a toolbar with text on OSX ;P 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;So, I need to think about another way to provide that functionality 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;(the start and stop scanning), unless someone thinks I should spend 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;the time to develop a hack to get it to work....or if we just accept 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;the graphics (w/o the text), then that should work also...

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;Crap - now I have some catching up to do! ;P 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;How does everyone feel about the ToolBar with the "Start Scanning" and 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;"Clear Packages" link?&nbsp;&nbsp;The one platform I cannot duplicate the 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;look-and-feel of the windows gui is OSX.&nbsp;&nbsp;And if I can't do it on OSX, 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;I don't think it is worth it ;P.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I have commited a few changes to the UI (including not maximizing at 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; startup). Also I've commited the "error report dialog" for you all to 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; check 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; out. The actuall reporting part still has to be implemented and so it is 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; disabled on the form. Throw an exception and give it a try. Feeback is 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; welcome. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I'm anxious to redo some of our main UI but I would like to get the 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; input of 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; the group. The last thing we want is to go down the wrong rode with the 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; UI. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; What do you think needs to be done? Any applications that you would 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; suggest 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; we model it after? Speak up.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;First of all, I think adding comments is an excellent idea. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;A couple of things jumped right out at me: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;1) When IRCLeech starts, please don't force it into Maximized mode, 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Normal 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;is fine. How about a configurable option? 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;2) Configurable parameters such as: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; a) Max # of concurrent downloads per bot 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; b) Max # concurrent downloads at any given time 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;3) Output from IRC Servers...Can we somehow display the communication 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;between 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; a) IrcLeech &lt;-&gt; IRC Server 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; b) IrcLeech &lt;-&gt; XDCC Bot 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Maybe we can add something to the Status and Download forms? Clicking 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; on a 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;server will open up a giant textbox that shows maybe the last 500 lines 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; or 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;so? And clicking on a bot in the downloads queue should show the 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;communication that has taken place between the XDCC bot and IRCLeech? 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; What 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;do you guys think? I feel this is the biggest thing missing... I don't 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; want 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;a complete irc interface.. Or what about simply logging to a text 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; file... 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Anyways, from the 2.0 TODO list, I've decided on the following: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;03) improved downloads functionality: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 03.1) pausing downloads 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 03.2) prioritized downloads 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 03.3) opening completed downloads from within the application 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;I'll be giving these three a lot of attention in the next few days, so 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; feel 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;free to throw some ideas at me.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Jasmeet brought up the issue of documentation, but unfortunately we 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; don't 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;have any.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you guys want, i'd be willing to write XML comments in 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; the 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;IrcLeechCore code so we can generate some nice technical documentation 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; from 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;it.&nbsp;&nbsp;I guess it would definitely be usefull to all of us.
