Just a suggestion............................

In the advanced view................

When displaying the Tasks tab or the Transfers tab, would it be possible to get a total count of the work units in the lower tool bar?

Are you the final authority on this question??
You make the final decisions about the appearance of Boinc??

If Boinc View could do this years ago I don't see why it should not be done in Boinc.

No, I gave my own opinion, or are you saying I am not allowed to have one?
If BOINC View can do it, why not use that then?

All I am saying is that when you have 26 Seti, 3 CPDN, 45 Einstein, 122 Primegrid and 400 Uppercase showing in your BOINC Manager, I don't think it should tally them as they're all different sorts of tasks.

I'm not sure CPDN would be able to do that. Its server would need to be able to distinguish between crashed and successful climate models, then only add up the successful ones. The CPDN server can usually recognise the difference but not always. Occasionally crashed, incomplete results are labelled Over - Success - Done.

Not interested in work that has been completed and uploaded. Only a total of work that is "on board" the computer.
