The filter torrent list box and transfers tab positions don't seem very intuitive about their function over there. One might think -even for a second- that he's searching something in that left column what's it called that contains status, labels etc. |

Good point I was thinking about that, that the "Torrent list" tab look like it is linked to the "tree view"? I am looking at it don't really know how to place it without changing the "tree view". Maybe just make the "tree view" go all the way up so it is consistent with the lower "tab bar"? |

You can't see the transfer list and the graph at the same time. That's the reason. |

@ngosang If it is at the top you can not see both the "torrent list" and "speed graph" at the same time but you know it does not have anything to do with a specific torrent, as the bottom tabs bases its information on the selected torrent at the top. If it is at the bottom you think it has to do with the torrent selected at the top, but you can see both the "torrent list" and "speed graph" at the same time. Maybe have it on top and make the "torrent list" get shoved down to the bottom covering up the bottom tabs and (area) when you press the "Speed Tab"? It looks kind of stupid and more confusing: Tab at the top, graph at the bottom: Maybe the other tabs at the top is only showed at the same time as the "Torrent list" in exchange of the bottom tabs and area. |

Technically if we assume that the top tab bar is 'global' and the bottom is 'per torrent' you are correct but let's consider this: When someone sees the speed tab on the bottom he may wonder why its there but as soon as he clicks it he'll realize the graph is displayed on the bottom window therefore it makes sense to be there. Also i assume that the graph is global, the total upload/download speed (haven't upgraded to 3.3 yet). In that case it doesn't matter if the bottom window is hidden because as you said, that is per torrent info anyway.
Imo it's not worth the effort to change all that. |

@thalieht You are not clear on what you prefer here, you want the "Speed graph" tab to be at the bottom tab bar as well as the graph itself? If the tab is at the bottom tab bar this bar has to be displayed at the same time as the graph taking up vertical space (just a point). If you look at the lowest picture in this issue you can see the tab bar is covered by the graph, saving space. Maybe the drop down menus in the graph can be placed differently. I try not to make decisions on changes based on the effort it takes to change it. Also I try to assume what I will assume when I look at a layout for the first time and use, it can be really hard if you factor other things into the decision process. |

As i said i haven't upgraded to 3.3 yet so i haven't seen the graph first hand. It's not important to show it at the same time as the torrent list, when i said it i was thinking of myself using the peers tab mostly from the bottom window so i guess this is subjective and i could imagine someday wanting to see the graph and bottom window at the same time. |

My qBittorrent GUI Wish List I'm new here and glad to be. Massive user since uTorrent got weird, plus I always prefer open-source. I'm a non-coder graphics guy. Like my ideas or leave them. Food for thought, my wish list from most desired to least:
I'm going to install CouchPotato and SickRage soon, but that's another story. I hope it works as well as the rest of qBitttorrent. I understand that simplicity is paramount, but I hope these might help if you do decide to up some features. If anyone would like me to present a photoshopped image to illustrate any of my ideas please let me know. I'll try to check back here now and then for a while. Thanks much! |

"Garbage" is harsh. It might have been a messy wish list, and indeed part IMO your opinion sharing technique is garbage. I don't care. I only hope I have no more time for you. On Fri, Jan 22, 2016 at 8:04 PM, Snurre86 notifications@github.com wrote:

Keep your truth to yourself if it's not constructive. I stand by my wish list that may be confusing to simple-minded garbage slingers. |

First draft:
When you press the search entry box it will take you to the search tab and you can type right away, might move the icons and text in side the "text entry boxes".
Second draft:
Third draft:
Fourth draft:
Speed graph needs to be moved to the top "Tab bar" as it does not have anything to do with one specific torrent.
Fifth draft:
Sixth draft:
Seventh draft:
Eighth draft:
Might need some more space over the tabs.
Ninth Draft:
Consistent column headers under top and bottom tabs (added save path as files in a torrent can have different save paths).
10th draft:
Grayed out not selected text box.
11th draft:
Went back on the "tree view".
12th draft:
And changed my mind again on the "tree view".
13th draft:
