I just happened to suggest that in another thread:
- Adding 'sum file recalculate' option.. (maybe have this on the Age Properties panel? -- BTW the window is named Age Properties, but the right-click menu entry that opens it is named 'Show Book info', that's a minor detail though)
In fact I think there's a lack of infos about 'broken books': why is such book broken? (sum file, lacking files, unknown reasons). I guess that may not always be easy to know, but any info is better than nothing. (coould be displayed as a tooltip or in the status bar at the bottom?)
Other stuff:
- Tooltips over the books icons. ie: 'Not Yet downloaded' 'Private Age' 'Broken book' etc (I know about the Help; but tooltips are cool too
)
- Changing the whole 'Downloading recent update' freeze on startup. (Maybe have this be a dialog box that you can cancel? For all those moments when you don't want to download Ages but just work on your own stuff)
- Saving the various Library DB urls, and storing them in a drop-list? (For those of us who use both your DB and the Maintainers.)
- Displaying various minimal infos about selected book in the status bar? (maintainer name, 'last modified' date, number of files etc)
- In the Age Properties panel, the 'Files in this version' frame only displays something for Age that have been correctly downloaded. Is that intentionnal? There's nothing for broken ages, personal Ages, or Ages that haven't been downloaded yet.
