Removing some clutter #34

Closed melyux closed 1 year ago

melyux commented 1 year ago

There are some mostly implicit/useless values that will help remove clutter (as by example from the older Transmission Remote GUI project):

qu1ck commented 1 year ago

Disagree on the first, having no eta is different from unknown eta and should be reflected.

Others are fixed.

melyux commented 1 year ago

Some of my seeding transfers have a blank ETA while others have "Unknown", and inactive downloads have blank too. It's all over the place. What does Unknown indicate?

Just a lot going on with no really useful informational difference between blank and Unknown afaict:

"Unknown" means ETA field is applicable, but can not be calculated. For example if you have a seeding limit but upload speed is 0 or downloading and download speed is 0. Empty means ETA is not applicable, i.e. torrent will be in current state indefinitely. Transmission api returns distinct values for these.

melyux commented 1 year ago

Makes sense for the most part. Maybe instead of "Unknown" it could be a "-" to be less distracting? It's just hard to pick out the useful ETA numbers from endless "Unknown"s at a glance

qu1ck commented 1 year ago

And then I will get questions about what "-" means. Use sorting and filters to present the data as you want it.

  • Show blank instead of "Unknown" for ETA

How about the infinity symbol? qBittorrent and uTorrent already do that.

qu1ck commented 1 year ago

I like that, actually use it in few other places already.

Implemented in v0.7.0
