Hi, I suspect this has already been asked a few times but I thought I'd ask anyway.
Is there a feature request to get a dialogue box to appear when saving a project? I'm asking because if the knock on impact of Covid is more people working from home and using home broadband then I feel like there may need to be a greater level of user feedback. To give an example if I take a project file of about 4MB and save it locally it is finished in seconds (definitely under a minute) but if I take the same project file and save it to a network location via a VPN then the save time is longer; say a minute or two. Based on my investigation this seems to match up with peoples home broadband as in the UK the upload speed is pretty variable / often quite poor when compared with download speeds. I think it would be useful if there was a dialog that appears if a part of the process takes longer than x seconds. The dialog might say: * Creating project file * Saving to disk * Saving backup I think those are the main tasks involved in the save but it would be useful if the user is told that it is saving to disk but taking a while as hopefully they will then investigate their connection speed first. Not to worry if this has already been discussed and rejected but I thought I'd ask to see what the options / opinions are.
