Unfriendly User Interface

Post by John_Appleseed »

Hallo
First of all, thanks for making Transmission, for me it's the best bit-torrent programm so far!

I like to report some "bugs" or let's say inconvenience user interface.

I tryed to report it in the other forum but couldn't even open an account (see annex).

When Im adding a new torrent to transmissio (with magnet links) its alwys opening TWO windows asking almost the same questions/seetings, it would be better if there just was ONE window popping up, as the informations/setting to make are almost the same.

the first window is:

the second (and for me the only realy needing/usefull popup for stettings bevore start the transmission):

because I already set the main direction where I want file to go as u can see here:

I hope any understands what I'm trying to say. I just prefer to have only one window popped-up asking me what settings/direct i prefer for the new magnet-link-added torrent. If I ad torrents without magnet link I also just have ONE window popped up for setting/direction instruction.

Thx for looking into this "problem".

I tried (check/uncheck) everything/every combinations with the settings, just tried now once again, doesn't change anything at all, Im always getting two windows popped up with almost the same "questions" about the setting of the specific torrent/file...

Sorry for replying so late… the problem is still the same. I think its just the way u said "you will always get a magnet 'Add window'"

I just want that the design/user interface changes to popping-up only ONE window (as on my 2nd screenshot). So that when im adding a new torrent i dont have to click two times…

I hope you understand what I mean, even with my english :mrgreen:
