Discussion: when to show cached images about rpi-imager HOT 1 CLOSED

Agree it's difficult to get this right, first though I think it's worth adding a 'cached' tickbox to the list so that it is clear when an image is cached and when it is not.

Beyond that, my most pressing concern is that it is easy to understand from the user's point of view. We cannot be sure that they will know what 'cached' means so having a hint saying these ones have already been downloaded onto the computer. Would be fine.

Also when offline, making sure there is a greyed out item indicating that you are offline and are displaying cached images only

from rpi-imager.
