Category Seeding revisted-- can't get seeding category

by loninappleton on 2016/09/06 12:33:25 AM    
I've installed, uninstalled and done everything I can think of to keep my settings -- which only seem to allow my transfers to show and retrieve or build a Seeding Category.

I've exported and imported with and without previous settings.  

Right now I have build 2.43 with the same absence of the Seeding category.

The seeding category shows up fine on a scratch install on a different machine I've used to test.

What I can't do is get an install even from scratch to show the seeding category of _active_ transfers and a good pointer to my torrents folder.

Messing with the Plus key at categories has not made a successful category.  At a previous post I thought it did-- that just brought in all seeding items, not active ones.

The program is going again but I want to see 'Seeding" someplace in categories and working properly.

Look here:
https://support.tixati.com/categories

and here specifically:(pic is a little of of date but still useful)
https://support.tixati.com/files/categories-add%20window.png

for 'Type' select 'Status'

for 'Status' select 'Seeding'

for 'Name' select whatever you want, it doesn't make a difference. but if you want it to look default, type 'Seeding" for name.

now press ok.

at the bottom of the categories window (on the left) there should be a 'Seeding' category.

I think I tried this previously but to clarify my question:

The specific info I want at seeding is the titles of
the numeric 'now seeding' information at screen bottom and the fact that it varies.

Will this do the job?

Just to show I'm trying to get my own solutions I did find color scheme in the setup but for example in Categories> My Cat > Properties,  no color option is shown that could be changed.

If there is another method please advise.

If I understand what I'm seeing, the categories that are added can get the color options?

After looking at it. ONLY the Categories you set as STATUS -> (i.e. to recreate the 8 default) will get a color.
Found the first six easily, that's under custom colors -> from "offline download text" to "running seed text"
"Running non queueing seed" is seed+ (no seed slot used)... I believe "All categories" and "Uncategorized" are DEFAULT but cannot give a specific color.

It would be useful in situations like this to have a parse-able or at least editable settings.dat ... or if you IMPORT someone else's (for instance for the categories) you could MERGE in the client.
Hope this was helpful. I am new to Tixati, and am used to bencoded settings.dat from uTorrent, which you can just edit with an editor. So this will be a learning curve, but I am excited since... well ads!!
Thank you creators and team for keeping updating this great client.
