Following an email conversation between design and devs, we agreed that the app installation progress will be reflected in 3 places (the first of which is particularly pertinent to this bug):
1) APP ARTWORK (ie icon) Artwork is filled with transparent overlay Overlay gradually reduced creating a emptying effect where the app icon is gradually revealed Effect pauses at 80% empty once downloading is completed. Remaining 20% takes place during installation Please note that during downloading / installation the app icon appears in the launcher AND on the apps scope. The latest designs of the app scope only show installed apps not available apps so the problem in this bug is partly resolved by that. 2) CARD HEADER (eg in Store) Attribute changes as installation progresses: i) FREE/£0.99 ii) Downloading iii) Installing iv) Installed Note - a purchased but not installed app is marked as Purchased 3) BUTTON (on preview) Button label and background changes as installation progresses: i) Label: Install | Background: Solid button colour ii) Label: Downloading… | Background: Background acts as progress bar, filling up as downloading progresses iii) Label: Installing | Background: Solid colour plus spinner to side of label iv) Label: Open | Background: Solid colour. ** Description changed: If a user chooses to install an app but doesn't stay on the app preview while it downloads and installs (or the device sleeps in the meantime), when they see the list of apps, the app that is being downloaded is still shown as un-installed, with no distinction made. This needs design input - some platforms show the app in the list of 'installed apps' (eg iOS home screen) but have a progress bar or some other badge to show that it's not ready to run yet. This affects both unity8 and the scope because there will be additional state for the scope to send to the dash in the apps list results. + + RESOLUTION + Design: Description of desired behaviour added to comments -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1267184 Title: [Dash] apps that are being downloaded/installed are not shown differently from un-installed apps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1267184/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
