 when the window pops up another window behind it also pops up
 this second window has the info for bittorent

Yes, but not just in the GUI.  I've given up on the GUI 
because it's simpler and easier to use bittorrent on the CL

btdownloadcurses.py --max_upload_rate 20 name_of_the.torrent

   Even simpler if you use an alias for all but the torrent file, 
eg, 'bt name_of_the.torrent' and use Tab completion.  Then 
you'll see the torrent start, download rates, and current seeders 
and peers, progress, etc.  It's also quicker to resume if you 
need to stop it for any reason.   Most all of this is recent 
improvements in 'bittorrent'. (bittorrent-3.9.0-2mdk)
