stop downloading and seed

Hi, for various reasons I am downloading a torrent and I don't want to finish the download immediately. Let's say I want to leave it at 90% complete.

However, when I hit 90% I would like to continue seeding back to others. Eventually I will complete the download.

I can't see any obvious option to seed but not download an incomplete file. Is there such a facility?

thanks

Not directly. Currently the closest you can get is to set the download speed to absolute minimum possible and last I checked you could set it to 0 (zero) since it uses a separate setting for imposing a limit at all (some others have 0 as "no limit" setting).

ok thanks. Sounds like a workaround.
