Does anyone know if we can send the storedownloader 'to back' or in a future version can we have this so its not always on top? On my internet it takes a while to download store items, and its quite awkward to multi-task with a downloader stuck in front of my screen!



(It does also seem to crash a lot at the moment)



Edit: Sorry I'm confused as to how image uploads are working, its attached it so I cant get the url to add to the post it just downloads when you click it.



It just isn't my day :p

yh would be nice to be able to minimise it but you can just move it out the way

also some file size information (total mainly) would be very nice as right now it's quite difficult to tell how long it'll take.



and yh mine crashes a lot too, i think it's worse on slower connections

On 1.006 I have yet to have an actual crash. The problems come for me in random glitches and loss of designing control. (screen shoots under the level, camera goes all wonky, 2D mode actually is on an angle strangely sometimes when it glitches..reveals to me that it might be an easy addition if it can glitch to it.) I typically just restart it and its fine.

There is no way to minimise the current downloader in the current version or V1.007 as it stands, however I will put it in the list of changes to try and fit in for V1.007.



As for crashes we are aware of a few and they have all been fixed in V1.007

Yeah, the internet speed isn't my issue:





However, the downloader did crash the interface about 3 times during the download of my files (Something I don't recall about a temporary file).



On a smaller screen the thing being top level is a bit annoying as its hard to put out the way!



Though I suppose it doesn't have to download media all that often, its just one of those things that doesn't fit quite right in an interface.



As always thanks for the work on this

We are looking into this as reproducing it is not the problem. We are experiencing more demand on the server than we have had before, so it's the first opportunity for us to see what is happening and remedy it. Thanks for your patience while we ensure our delivery infrastructure is up to the job.
