Hello all, I am a Tixati user of a year or so and I have highly appreciated the work that has gone into it.
Since adjusting to Tixati after using a certain, slowly over-commercialized Bittorrent fork I have never wanted to go back, however there is one feature that I miss from said client, and that is an incomplete file extension.

Files that have not yet finished all pieces could have a post-extension, for example:
Incomplete Video File.mkv.tid

I would suggest either *.inc (incomplete) or *.tid (tixati incomplete download) however it ultimately doesn't matter what the extension is: the main concern is looking in a directory with both complete and incomplete files and having the ability to discern amongst them without the need to open the Tixati application itself. When implemented under "Settings/Local Files" this option could initially be disabled in early implementations. This may cause issues while transferring a multitude of small files (generally under 512KB) at a high transfer rate (generally over 4MB/s) however, so I would also like to suggest a checkbox item on the "Load Transfer"/File Selection Dialog which allows the user to set this option at load time, thus initializing the file names according to preference of the user. Lastly, a checkbox item under the torrent context menu "Local Files" which allows the user to enable/disable this option for that specific torrent. This final option is not entirely necessary if the first two options are implemented but it seems logical in regards to the amount of control Tixati already gives to users over their file transfers.

Thank you for your time, and keep up the excellent work!

Ive gotta second this request, as an option, it would be more convenient for me than putting it in another folder. Just give me everything in the one, then let me see if it is complete or. not

I agree that having a visual clue outside of tixati and file location would be of great benefit.

Any decision on this? I would also find this very useful.

there is an incomplete file extension. look in settings-transfers-files.

this is an ancient post.

Tixati has since added a more powerful option.

It can be configured to set a prefix or a suffix or both.

With a prefix, like Incomplete.<filename.ext> unfinished files are easily detected with alphabetically sorted. Add a suffix can be limiting. Some files like video can be viewed even if incomplete. Keeping the mp4 in tact at the end facilitates that. Adding a .tid suffix would break click-to-play functionality as it would not be recognized as a video.
