Initial Presentation:

peer table populated:

Detail View of selected peer:

Window enlarged:
Peertable and detail view:

Additional Notes:

The widgets were renamed to offer a "self documenting" naming convention during the development.

This is Qt Creator diff junk - I will correct this if/when ready for merge.

Is this reachable? (Didn't we remove the "What's This" button?)

If we're going to start renaming these, "recent-blocks" makes more sense than "LIMITED"...

 if (strList.size())
- return strList.join(" & ");
+ return strList.join(" ");


This seems less clear

This change allows the services string in the detail view to break.
The ampersands are extraneous (imo).

Probably better to re-implement serviceFlagsToStr here...

The "Bumper" will be used to add more columns to the peertablemodel.
The point of having abbreviated services flags is to conserve space so more information can be displayed in the table view. The underlying design principle is to display as much useful info as possible "at a glance" as well as allowing those columns to be sortable. Connection time and synced blocks will be added in a follow up PR.

Nice. Concept ACK.

promag

Concept ACK. You should split in multiple commits - renames, add more column(s), etc. Splitting in multiple commits also allows to split the PR so part of it can be early merged. You also have unrelated changes, like in RPCConsole::tabShortcut, that should be removed.

Autogenerated gui elements are necessary for VALID code.

Upon further investigation I see that Qt Creator validates these types of files and generates these elements when Qt expects them. If they are not present when Qt expects them they generate an innocuous log - So they aren't unnecessary code - these elements are created by Qt when it expects them and is VALID code. I recommend stop considering these auto generated elements as "unnecessary code".

I'm completely agree.

@RandyMcMillan
For example, you could split out the I/O column adding into a separated PR (#162 (comment), #162 (review)).

It would help make progress :)

jonatack · 2020-12-25T19:34:50Z

I agree with @promag and @hebasto. Smaller, more-focused commits and PRs would be a good idea here. Make it easy for people to review and approve your changes (you're not alone, I struggle with this myself).
