Hi Silviu,
Thanks for taking time to comment.
I am in complete agreement with you in that showing UI signs of an application being busy is really good thing. Not showing anything will be a deadly UI sin.
But the point I am trying to make is about the manner and messages used in that situation.
First of all, a separate window for expressing "progress" of an operation is seems to be going against some UI philosophy. My idea of poping up an window/message box is the case of:
1. A feedback form user is needed. Usually Ok, Cancel, Discard etc. 2. An error notification
If you see carefully both of this situation would need to grab user attention even if the user is busy with some other app.
Absolutely, the way windows pop-up and disappear in YaST update is annoying. Having established that we need a progress indicator and that it needs to be in the same window, the question is can it be done easily? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ux+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ux+help@opensuse.org
