YES!!! Cleanup LONG lists of Downloads!!!
Also make it so you can clean up the list without deleting the actually file/download! That is frustrating too.
Yes! Melerix!

What about to be able to throttle the download speed during certain hours? The current speed limiter is great, but if it was configurable according to time of day, it would be even better. Otherwise great software. Cheers to the developer.

Re: 1: Yes, you can - simply click on the number value twice to make the number directly editable.

In my screenshot, I've edited the values under Low already to non-default values, and I'm about to edit the first value under medium.

re: 2: Not sure what you are asking there, so I don't want to say yes it can before making sure - can you describe in more detail?

re: 3,4: Agreed, those would be nice.

re: 5: If you click on your completed download once in FDM, you should see a 'menu' pop up from the bottom of the window with information. At the top of that menu (basically in the area between the list of downloads and that menu) you should see General and Log. Clicking on Log should give you more details, but I suspect that even this info is still not enough.

1) notifications for download errors
2) in macOS split view, ability to make window narrower than 3/4 screen width
3) auto retry downloads x times, on a per-error type basis
4) rename downloads while downloading
Thanks for a great app!

Your image is not showing, just as my image did not in my post showing the same thing a couple of posts before.

Not sure why the [ img ] tag is not working, so that is why I linked to the image directly.

Please add support for traditional (not simplified) Chinese in the UI.

It would also be nice to be able to change file names during the download process for when you've started a large download and you realize that the file name is inaccurate or incomplete. Having the new name automatically apply on download completion would be fine.

Lastly, the download box UI could use a bit more contrast and clarity. Right now it's light grays and blues, which looks nice enough but this makes the dialog box harder to read. It's also not immediately obvious from this UI—with a very light gray border around the unlabeled file name box—that you can rename downloads; for awhile, I thought FDM didn't possess this capability and was deferring downloads to the browser so that I could do this.

:!: :!: It would be very useful if you added the function that when it finishes a download it starts another one alone :!: :!:
