Task manager - Articles window

Post by Terry »

a] Is it possible to show the articles as groups? So instead of NiceMovie.r00....NiceMovie.r88 just one grouped icon NiceMove (expand by click the +)
b] Is it possible to filter the articles? That very useful for locating a download I want to move up in the queue.

The task manager window is optimized for speed, I didn't add collections there.

You can use edit menu->queued, then e.g. context menu, advanced->download immediately or download with priority, no need to reenter the save folder.

Also in the task manager you can try context menu, "Select related headers" Alt+S, then drag the headers to the desired position or invoke "Set priority".

I know/knew that Alex. I use that functionality.
Let me clarify my 'problem'.
Assume a download queue with 100 download sets in it.
Ech set containing 50 RARs on average. That's a list of 500 items.
Then it can be time consuming to find a certain download that I want to move to the top of the queue.

So it's not about how to priortize but how to locate the download.
I hop ethat explains it better.
