A little suggestion: Sistray popup

[Cobra78]

I think is a goo idea thath...if the mouse run over the sistray icon, appears a popup thath sow something like filname, time remanining, percentage, download speed, so is not needed to mximize deluge to see those information :)

I googled for some screenshots of apps using it, and it sems nice. So it's fine by me

EDIT: w00t http://gnomefiles.org/ look at which app is the top rated :) Right panel :)

There are some comments too :) This can only be good for Deluge

Not bad indeed for such a new app :) Bu anyway, back to the topic, what kind of style did you think to use in the popup? Like...

file a speed Dl speed ul remaining %
file b speed Dl speed ul remaining %

or

Files 2 total speed dl total speed ul

?

Libnotify would not be appropriate for this, though they could be used elsewhere.

Notifications popup information without a user request. For instance, if your download finished, you might use libnotify to inform the user.

If you want the user to be able to check the download progress on demand, use a tooltip.

Example of using tooltips and notifications:

Now that I look better into it,I think you are right about libnotify. Last night I must have beenbraindead.But then again it was almost 3 am,lol

My question about the format still stands though

Krakatos:

I think that

file a speed Dl speed ul remaining % (progress bar?)
file b speed Dl speed ul remaining % (progress bar?)
total speed dl speed ul

would be the best way to do it, because I usually want to know about individual files, but I think a total ul dl speed would be good as well.

there's a systray popup in SVN now.

currently it displays:
* # of connections
* Total DL speed
* Total UL speed
