New Feature Requests Your idea for a cool new feature. Or, a LimeWire annoyance that has to get changed. |

Sam you are the one well placed to create a new thread -I'd like a bandwidth status down/up ie 12KB/s down 10KB/s somewhere in the GUI always diplayed (maybe in the bottom at the connection quality level) or it could be included in the icon (in osx dock) or in the application instance (windows bar) à la overnet.

whole word searches I would like to see whole word searching (does Gnutella support this?). Why? One example: searching for "Irene Kral" returns many hits for "Diana Krall". No problem if the filename includes the name of the singer or even the ID3 tag, but many many files lack both -- apparently on many peoples' systems only the pathname indicates the artist. It is a nightmare! Another: "Yo-Yo Ma". Any idea how many names and titles include these strings??? Give it a try yourself Last edited by Matamoros; May 16th, 2004 at 11:14 AM. |

This feature is not incompatible with Unix/Linux that can provide such information also in its status bar.

I've mentioned this before but the devs just seem to be confused when i say anything about it. A Seekable media player, where you can drag across the Limewire Media player and move to diff spots in a song...it is possible, for MamiyaOtaru has done it with his last version of Aqualime. 3.8.6.2 (yea hes kinda lazy at releasing) I've never had a direct response...can this be added? For more info try out teh program it is up for download either at UTC or my site. This would be a milestone addition seeings how LW has has the had the original play right through no options to fast forward media player for it seems forever. |

In some future, Limewire may include interfaces to interoperate with platform native players (that was done with iTunes on MacOS, but Windows Media Player or Real Player ot WinAmp interfaces may be possible, if there are some open-sourced interfaces that complies with the Limewire GPL. Developing player components requires very specific and complex knowledge on codecs, and hardware acceleration support. This would be too much work for now for the LimeWire developers. If AquaLime developers want to help LimeWire, they can contribute within the open-source project and share their experience with their component integration (but LimeWire requires now many compatibility and performance tests, and active support by the contributors to help solve issues, before such new code can be finally integrated into LimeWire and released; we don't want to include unstable and poorly tested components). Some contributions (including my own ones) will not pass the tests phase or will be integrated in a unscheduled future release once the current planned priorities have advanced, and Limewire has understood how to support this new code. In some future, my next works in Limewire will be to find the performance bottlenecks in the downloader classes (this part is one of the most complex classes with lots of cases to support interoperability with various servents, so I did not invest my time in optimizing it as development was quite complex; the automated tests suite for this part in the code is the longest one in LimeWire, and I prefer let LimeWire work on it), or to reduce again the memory footprint and VM stress when handling incoming Gnutella messages.

On MacOSX it would be nice if the file-vault (Dateisammlung) would be less intrusive on the filenames. Every time I open it, some name gets highlightesd even though I only wanted to see what is inside the folder, and when i click on another folder, the names are switched. IMO you should have to click space, enter or something similar (or click a second time on an already selected file) to change the name. I nearly lost fiels though this...

fox's list I'm glad to see someone else's whining about the edit menu besides me. 1. edit menu 2. symbol next to the X on the tab to pull down the tab menu. the apple button + mouse clic sucks. 3. re-search a corrupt file automatically. when a new on is found, replace it. put in the status section "replacing bad file" 4. IF user desires, let them use a name instead of the long host numbers. this would also take up less tag ************. 5. recently searched terms drop down. |

My List First off, I'd like to vote against defaulting compression to "on". It slows my machine, I don't need it, and I don't use it. I'd love to see an effective adult filter on the incoming searches page. Maybe also something that'll slow the scrolling to less than realtime so I can read it without having to constantly toggle the on/off checkbox. And I don't mind the discussion on the thread, I do however find it kinda sad that there are less suggestion posts than discussion posts. I suspect there are mor like me who've been building a list and haven't yet submitted here. Here's what I've been wanting since I decided to take notes. I'd like to be able to click on something other than a file in the list to clear the highlight off the file thats currently highllighted The buttons at the bottom of the screen disappear when there are 9 tiers of search tabs at the top. I've noticed while using the LW Pro skin that every hour or so the entire contents of the Java window blanks out to grey for a few seconds, and re-appears just as it was. It reminds me of when the taskbar crashes & comes back. In the Incomplete folder- I'd like to see the status icons refresh themselves like they do in the search window. I'd also like to be able to select more than one file at a time, and to stay in the incomplete folder window after choosing resume, having the icon change instead of being sent to the download window. I'd like the current search results to come back up when the app restarts, just as the downloads in progress do. A warning dialog as the search limit is approached reminding that searches will be rolled off into oblivion if this one proceeds. How about numbers along the left side of each file line? In the incomplete folder, I'd like to see a date/time the download was started When I highlight a page of Need More Sources, unhighlight the selection after I press the Find Sources button so I don't get sent down to the "w's". I'd like a button that says Place selected file at end of queue, for those connections that sit at 0Kb/s for a long time and only intermittently speed up, so that faster files in the queue can use the available download slot. Or maybe a user-defined timeout that determines how long a transfer can sit at zero before being automatically placed at the end of the queue. Or maybe give the intermittent low-speed connections a temp slot exempt from download slot limits. Search option checkboxes, so we can do except searches. The Tools>Options choices available for each individual search. Commonly used Tools>Options controls available within their respective section, or maybe a slide out window, or even an airplane cockpit-like all controls on one page layout. Or direct-click access to user-defined options "favorites" HOTKEYS!!!- Available regardless of window focus. Exit after (User-Defined) transfers option in system tray context menu. How about a search button where the chat button used to be which toggles the opening/closing of the left & top panes. Add ".ape" to the default displayed filetype list. |
