sl23 Posts: 285 03/03/2017	sl23 Posts: 285 Any chance of being able to save the Column sizes? Or, if easier, reduce the sizes of Released on, Version and Size columns so that Name and Category can show more info please. Currently they are all the same width which is wasting space in some columns while restricting for others. Also, when updating apps there's a window showing the current progress, would you be able to change this so all apps that were highlighted are listed and have a progress bar for each. LiberKey updater is a perfect example of this. It shows a progress bar for each app and within each bar are the details of each app to be installed or updated. Thanks edited by sl23 on 03/03/2017

VVV_Easy_Symenu Posts: 159 04/03/2017	VVV_Easy_Symenu Posts: 159 Hello, sl23 Now PAT has user Column resize, windows position and save to ConfigPAT. Even you can resize to cero (hide) (Note: If you want recover from the cero column size you must reset the config) ¿Is it that you want for the SPS Manager? It's a little bit tedious to program it (the program must save all the positions). In the other hand, the multiple progress bar is a nice feature but, if we want to be ambitious, I'd added ... ¡ and multithread !. Now the download speed is the critic point to get a faster installation. I say it that because I am thinking do it for PAT but it is quite complicated to program... BTW a very, very, very personal belief: I think that SyMenu now must grow in popularity more than in features but ¿how do it? I think that SyMenu can be the "champion of free license applications" some like F-Droid in android (¡ what coincidence!, remember the Gian SPS Manager goal ). Personally I am trying to create SPS App in this line, (DBeaver, Avidemux, digiKam, openShot, RawTherapee, ShotCut, etc). Now, with the QT libraries and other, there are a lot of open source app that are cross SO and have a professional level (they comes from Linux). When there are a good number of this type of app we can discuss how get the public reconnaissance of SyMenu as "Champion of free license applications" but this is a theme for other topic. Well, I have rambled a little, I hope you will forgive me. Thank you for your attention.

Gianluca Administrator Posts: 1274 04/03/2017	Gianluca Administrator Posts: 1274 Hi guys. I perfectly agree with VVV_Easy_Symenu: the new features must slow down and the entire program has to consolidate. Both from the point of view of its popularity and from the point of view of its reliability. I don't know if you noticed but this 5.10 version has got two betas and I scheduled the release after the mid of March. This is a strange timing for the usual SyMenu release pace but I need to consolidate and above all I need to test it very well. In 2016 I released 11 versions. In 2015 16 versions. It's really impossible to maintain a high quality level with so many releases. The right number should be 5-6 per year and with the next one we already are at the 4th. I work much hard... The request from sl23 are all correct but I don't know if I will work again with the current SPS Manager. Before spending more time on it I would like to study a completely different approach and you already know what my idea is. Last thing. IMHO the multiple progress bar are useless without the multithreading and, VVV_Easy_Symenu perfectly explained, how complex the code becomes with this kind of approach but I agree that it would be great to have it in SPS Manager and PAT.
