Package: nautilus-wipe
Version: 0.2.1-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected], [email protected]

Hi,

1. ext2 filesystem on a USB flash drive, with 2GB free space
2. right click in Nautilus -> Wipe available disk space
3. go through the dialog, not changing the default options
4. the progress bar stays at 0% for a long while, then moves to 50%,
   then to 100%

=> users report that they are confused: it's unclear for them whether
the wipe operation is really happening, or the entire process
is stuck.

Potential solutions I can think of:

a) make the progress bar more fine-grained, if not too much work;

b) or, display additional information about what step in the process
   is being performed (e.g. "Pass 1/2", or whatever better wording UX
   folks will find), so that at least the user gets a hint that the
   progress bar is not supposed to be more fine-grained than it is;
   see e.g. "6.17.3. Indeterminate-progress indicator" in the
   GNOME HIG;

c) worst case, use the thing that goes back'n'forth inside a widget
   that looks like a progress bar: this should make the "UI is frozen,
   is anything happening at all?" problem more or less go away.

Cheers!
