Yes. This is intentional. Transmission gives a few cues to indicate
that these are linked, such as the turtle icon and the identical
terminology used. That's also why the preferences dialog says "Override
normal speed limits manually or at scheduled times". The "manually"
part comes in by pressing the button in the main window. It's intended
there for fast, easy toggling (such as: "ah, I have an incoming Skype
call, time to throttle my BitTorrent download for a minute.").
> I think it may be beneficial to have a check box in that section of
the preferences that turns the limits on and off, to avoid confusion. I
assumed it was only enabled if a time was scheduled.
The intent is to make temporary limits easy to toggle for situations
when other applications need more bandwidth for a short period of time.
IMO moving the toggle to the preferences dialog would make that more
difficult.
