Bug Description

I'm using 2.2.9 version.

There are no big visual differences when the Alternative Speed Limits button is enabled or disabled (Pressed or raised). Only the small red arrow. It would be nice some shadows to indicate when the button is pressed or enabled.

It would also be nice if you could improve the scheduler (alternative global speed limits). Doing that can stop or pause your downloads at specified times, and making it possible to set different settings for each day. Similar to KTorrent or uTorrent scheduler.
Thank you very much

The uTorrent-like scheduler would sure be nice and I will look into when I have more free time.

The alternative speeds button was fixed in SVN for v2.2.10.

Hello.
Until you get time to develop a scheduler as uTorrent
Is it too difficult for you to add an option to start/stop all the torrents at a selected time?
Thanks.

I actually always found uTorrent's scheduler cumbersome. I would much prefer an "event-driven" scheduler, where I tell the scheduler: "At X time on X day of week (or specific date), do this"--so, for example, "At 12:00AM on Monday, resume paused torrents" or "At 4:00PM on Weekdays, set the download limit to 50 and the upload limit to 20".

The one thing about uTorrent's scheduler I liked was the hidden "Seed-Only" mode. It would be nice if this were an option as well, but I believe that attribute should belong to specific torrents, and thus [url=https://bugs.launchpad.net/qbittorrent/+bug/908183]have added a separate request[/url].
