On each start of LW, the default column sort is by #. Is there a way to change this? I just wanted to know before posting in the new features section here.
Remember last search TYPE (i.e. audio, video, images, etc.). Since I would guess that many users use Limewire only for a particular type of file (such as audio) that would save most of us a click Add drop down arrows to the taps (or what they are now). I don’t like to use the ctrl key Research button for corrupted downloads I would like a pull down, either a separate box or from the title box that would have a list of previous search terms. This way I don’t have to retype things like cute kittens and love poems. |

I'm not sure about the windows version, but the mac version remembers which was the previous search type. But not each time you open LW. On the mac, if you Control+Click onto the top of the column bar you get many more options for sorting & columns to display. I don't know what the equivalent keyboard key to use for this is on windows LW. ALso do the same click on other parts of LW & you find more options in drop down window choices.
Research button: if you utilise magnetmix & search bitzi you can find out about files. So basically, all the things you request are already within LW. You need to investigate a bit more to find them.

I forgot to mention if you click or double-click on the top of column bar it will change the sorting arrangement. eg: double-click on Name & reults will sort alphabetically. d-click on file type & files will be arranged by file type.

Re-search. double click on a bad file will start a search for that item automatically.
remember columns and remember search types each time you start the program. i hate sort by #, and have to switch each session. it should be in the pref. also, the list of terms without having to type a letter drop down is not available, nor is remembering search terms once you shut down p.s. I'm running osx 10.3 |
