Request for a feature VisualWget

[Dandy]

Dear Khomsan Ph.,
please find below my propositions to VisualWget software. I would
appreciate if you could implement them in the next version.
1. to add button "New Multiple" at toolbar VisualWget
2. to add option to "to Save to" when you select New Multiple List
and add tab "Advanced" (i.e. when you want to select referer
parameter).
3. to make form Edit Job resizeble (in order to read parameter wget).

Regards,
Dandy

Hello Dandy,

Thanks for you suggestion.
Please see my response below...

1. to add button "New Multiple" at toolbar VisualWget

This can be done, I will work on this.

2. to add option to "to Save to" when you select New Multiple List
and add tab "Advanced" (i.e. when you want to select referer
parameter).

Currently, the New Multiple uses the Default Download Property.
Which you can specify where to Save to, and also other advanced
options.
You can use the preset manager to save the preset of options for used
in different cases.
The preset manager has been changed in 2.4.
You will be able to select & save preset more clearer.

I will not work on this.
But I may enable you to select the preset straight from the New
Multiple dialog.

3. to make form Edit Job resizeble (in order to read parameter wget).

Making the whole dialog resizable will consume lots of time.
I ever do this a while ago but later removed it.

I will not work on this.
But instead I will pop up another dialog if needed.
So that you can see all the parameters that you have putted in.

Dear Khomsan Ph.,
I agree with all the points except for the second one:

2. to add option to "to Save to" when you select New Multiple List
and add tab "Advanced" (i.e. when you want to select referer
parameter).

I can use profile Default Download Property but it`s not quite logical
and comfortable for option "referrer" as it's not suitable to set up a
new profile for each new site.
Is it possible to amend options for the group of links which are
already added? As it's not efficient to do this one by one.

Hello Dandy,

Is it OK to mimic what I answer in point 3 above?
Again should I instead add a button on the bottom left corner of the
New Multiple dialog.
The button will open a dialog that let you select the options,
including the referer.
Because I think this should make it more generic.
Some people may not use the referer, and we should hide this from
them.

Hello Dandy,

Making the dialog resizable is not consuming time now.
In the past I may found some problem when changing DPI.
So if we are not worrying about system DPI.
We can easily make all the dialog resizable.
So I just done it with all the dialogs.

For the 'Save to' and Referer of the New Multiple.
I decide to enable you to Edit Multiple Jobs.
So you can add them normally and edit them later.

Dear Khomsan Ph.,
Thanks for your response.
I also have one suggestion which is deemed to be not very critical.
Is it possible to make available to the user to change the units of
measurement in the column "Size"? For example, I have in my current
layout MB but want to see KB or B.

Hi Dandy,

Thanks for you Suggestion.
This is possible. I just add to my TODO list.
