no clear idea from my side where to have it in UI placed, but in general I see 2 possible solutions for this: - blocking one - have small modal window in front (maybe with cancel/stop button existing) => progressbar displayed & no UI updates possible in the meantime or - non blocking one - some status-bar progress bar only, but for this I'd propose to have task running in separate thread => UI is responsive, would be more for a notification purposes
in fact I probably would preffer for daily usage the second option, in case someone imports huge number of vids, he/she might would like to continue in other work meanwhile. also to mention, would be fine to have somewhere near the progressbar task beeing executed described => it's clear what task the progress bar is indicating progress of. that's it from my side, feel free to comment on these ideas -- progressbar on media import to project https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/660132 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenShot Developers, which is subscribed to OpenShot Video Editor. Status in OpenShot Video Editor: Confirmed Bug description: 1) OS Name & Version (i.e. Ubuntu 9.10, Fedora 12, etc...) Ubuntu 10.10 2) Installation Method (i.e. DEB, PPA, Build Wizard, or Don't Know) deb - official ubuntu repo 3) Version of OpenShot (i.e. Help > About) 1.2.2 4) Attach a "openshot.debug" file (optional)... See the FAQ link above for details. Whenever I import many videos to project, UI is non responsive till import finishes. From my point of view some indicator/progressbar should be displayed that would present progress of import process in a nice way. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openshot.developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openshot.developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
