Hi guys
I got to thinking after upgrading to Wineyes 9.1 that during the
instalation process, there was a minute or two of time when it seemed
like nothing was happening, it was almost as if things got stuck, even
though it really didn't. When you first run the installer, you get a
message that says the process is starting and you do hear a few beeps
indicating that the instalation process has started, but after that,
there's no feedback on the screen that something is actually happening.
I even looked with the window-eyes cursor to see if I could get a fare
few clues as to what was happening, and I couldn't get any. Then
about 30 seconds later or so, I received the prompt asking me if i
wanted to upgrade to the latest version with the yes and no buttons. It
would be nice if there could be some kind of feedback that something is
happening during those first few seconds, this would help someone doing
their first upgrade to know that yes, the install process really is
indeed starting, and the necessary files are being prepared. I'm
guessing that's what that is? I know this might seem to be a bit of a
strange request, but after upgrading to 9.1 that idea occurred to me.
It's actually something I've thought of a lot before, but I could never
quite put it into words, so I hope this makes some kind of sense. I'm
talking about maybe having either some progress bars appear on the
screen, or to have some kind of audible indication, kind of like what
happens when the default apps are installed after you have to restart
your computer after the instalation process is over, this happens in
windows 7, not sure about it in windows 8 land. Either way, I hope that
can possibly happen, i know that maybe new users might appreciate that
because they might think their computers are stuck on this screen for a
really long time.
Thanks!
