[REQ] "Add to current transfer queue" context menu

Post by *Helix751 »

I don't know whether this has already been requested, but I didn't find it elsewhere:

When a background FTP transfer is currently active, the only way to add files to this transfer's queue (as opposed to starting another job/thread, which would be band-width inneficient) is to press the "+" button on the d/l window and select "Add selected elements for d/l".

I suggest adding an "Add to current transfer queue" option to the context menu for a file/folder/list of files (besides the "Add to d/l list"), that should be displayed only if a backgroud transfer is in progress.
Regards,
Sergio

Yes, indeed the + button is the only way to add items to the list at this time. I will add your suggestion to my wish list, but I cannot promise anything yet.

I think it could be useful if file queues would be shown in a virtual folder in "Network neighbourhood" instead of the current implementation.

This way transfers can be enqueued in any moment by dragging FTP files to this virtual folder, and even dragging url from browsers!

The only problem would be how to reorder the queue, but I think someone can have an idea of a workaround (perhaps with file dates).
