Compact view feedback

[Renara]

Just wanted to say great work on 2.0b1, and I'm loving the new compact view for seeing even more torrents at once. There are just a couple small niggles:

Bars are too light
I'm not sure about other people, but the yellow bars are especially hard to make out, and the blue is also a bit tricky as it becomes a bit hard to make out at-a-glance due to the text on top. I'm not sure what would be the best way to make the bars easier to see though, I may attempt some things in photoshop if I have a chance, I was thinking possibly just having them look closer to the previous bars but using an outline/shadow on the text to keep it easy to read? I dunno, it's not an easy one

Seeding progress is missing?
Just wondering if this already known, but the "bar within a bar" that showed seeding progress doesn't appear to be in compact mode. Even just a slightly darker section to indicate seed progress would be handy, as really the full-width green bar isn't especially important or functional on its own except to distinguish infinite seed and fixed ratio seed torrents.


But yeah, it's a great addition, a few tweaks and it'll be perfect

Thanks for the feedback. I'm not sure what can be done about the bar. A pic would be very helpful. The seeding progress bar is still there, it just might not be as noticeable because of the lightness of the bars.

Ahh, hmm, I can see the bar within a bar now (though it's very close in colour to the rest of it!), also didn't notice before that the bars are actually split horizontally, so I think a bit more contrast is needed. For the blue bars part of the problem is that a lot of torrents these days have annoying long names, and there's a frustrating tendency towards using dots instead of spaces and a ton of abbreviations, so the title listed in the torrent window can be very busy which makes the bar quite difficult to distinguish, it's not a huge issue but it means I find the previous minimal view easier for getting an at-a-glance look at progress.

I'd have to agree with Renara, sometimes I can't even tell where the bars in the compact view are! Why can't they just be as strong as the regular view?
