The undesired files containing the cross-file pieces will be hidden in the future.

Well you can enable Append .!qB extension to incomplete files to differentiate them for now.

Duplicate of #2659

Version 4.0.x is released. It uses libtorrent 1.1.x which puts the unwanted part files in the hidden file
".<torrent_hash>.parts" which is put in the same folder as the root folder(if any) of the torrent.
For the moment it's not possible to put that file somewhere else.
