Servers Window



1. Toolbar
Common for all screens in eMule Plus, this handy row of buttons provides easy navigation between various screens and access to important features. You can change the skin, align the text labels and choose which buttons are visible by right clicking it.

• 1a. "Connect" Button
  The leftmost button controls interaction with servers. It has three states. Initially the text shows 'Connect'. Click it and eMule Plus starts trying to connect to servers, and the text changes to 'Cancel'. Clicking the button now will stop the process of trying to connect. Once the connection to a server is established, the text changes to 'Disconnect'. Clicking the button now will disconnect the server to which your client is currently connected.
• 1b. "Servers" Button
  This is the page you start up in. It shows you the list of available servers and logs.

  Click this button to see lists and details of your downloads and uploads.

3. Serverlist
Shows the list of servers that your client is aware of. The columns show various details about each server, and clicking the column header will sort the list accordingly. The server you are currently connected to is highlighted in yellow. Double clicking a server will disconnect you from the current server and try to connect to that server.

4. Server Context Menu
Right clicking a server will bring up this menu. For a more detailed description of the various items in the menu, look up the topic "Context menus used in the GUI" in the FAQ.
