0003393: RCon client: Hide remote console password by default
Doomseeker 1.2 introduced a "Hide" checkbox to the an RCon client. This is not checked by default.

I propose the default to be changed to "checked", to hide the password by default.
  1. Start Doomseeker from command line with the rcon option: doomseeker --rcon
  2. Notice how the "Hide" checkbox is unchecked.
Qt 5.9.2
No tags attached.

The checkbox option does not persist between starts, so maybe that's the core issue here anyway.

The option can be changed permanently by running the main program and going to the Appearance settings box. Check there "Hide password" and it will also change the default in --rcon.

I did not know that. Thank you, Zalewa.

It also looks like the "Hide passwords" checkbox there is disabled by default for first time starts, and was disabled in my current user configuration. (Note: I had to delete both $HOME/.doomseeker and $HOME/.config/doomseeker for this.) Should this be changed to "checked" by default? (Affects 0003394)

Also a bit off-topic for this ticket: Should toggling the checkbox in the RCon client be persistent and change the config, too? Currently, it is temporary and doesn't change the configuration. If the answer is "yes", please create a new ticket.

No.

Let's be consistent with Create Game box. So: no.

Surprisingly, duplicate. (Re-closing in a while.)
