[Bug 406062] Re: Tree-based side pane with tab grouping

 

I didn't really check dcsharp except the screenshots of it.

But I did move the tabs to the left on my laptops client to get used to
the reduced screen space and it's ok for this screen. However with
smaller vnc session (1024x768) I couldn't stand the narrower chat
view...

Also are we going to completely remove the transfer pane like it's shown
in the mockups?

Bug description:
Today, I have used direct connect for the first time, and wondered what client I should use. After investigating for some time, I've reached the conclusion that linuxdcpp was probably the best option, but after installing it I have to recognise I was pretty confused until I managed to find out what exactly I could do, and how.

I have seen this other client, dcsharp, which seems to be dead now. But the interface is really simple. The sidebar allows you to reach the different places you can be: the search, the hubs and the conversations, as well as keep an eye on things being uploaded and downloaded. You can access all that information easily, but it never gets in the way or make the screen feel "crammed".

I'm attaching a couple screenshots of dcsharp.
