Menu bar

OmniPeer puts an icon in the macOS menu bar. When downloads are active, the total download speed appears next to the icon.

Clicking the icon opens a panel with:

• the state of the networks: “All networks active”, “No active networks”, the list of active ones, or “P2P engine not connected” if the engine doesn’t respond;
• the total Download and Upload speed;
• active transfers, each with name, percentage, estimated time and progress bar (or “Seeding” for files already complete); with no active downloads, “No active downloads”;
• Pause All and Resume All;
• Open OmniPeer, which reopens the main window;
• Limit speed: a menu with a few ready-made limits for download and upload, or No limit. The item becomes “Limit speed · on” when a limit is set. The limits chosen here are the same as in Settings and take effect right away;
• Settings… and Quit OmniPeer.

Window closed, app running

Closing the main window doesn’t quit OmniPeer: transfers keep going and the icon stays in the menu bar. To stop everything, use Quit OmniPeer in the panel or OmniPeer › Quit (⌘ Q). Quitting also stops the omnipeerd engine; on the next launch the transfers resume.
