[Pharo-project] Progress bar in 2.0
Why do we need this icon on the updater progress bar? IMHO it looks awfull and we should remove it. Thx T.
click on it and you'll know. Now you can interrupt any background process and either kill/debug it. awfull is very subjective, it might not have the right size right now, but it's highly usefull. we still need to properly run the progress in a separate ui thread to enable proper interaction.

it is supposed to be closable... but in case the update is not modal. in case the update is modal, I also would like to have it centered (since we cannot do anything else anyway) and btw... we should think on a unique place/area of the window to show notifications... showing at any point that looks cool can quickly guide us into a messy UI (well... a "more messy" UI) Esteban On Oct 17, 2012, at 4:27 PM, "Torsten Bergmann" <astares@gmx.de> wrote:

Step by step we evolve... under the covers, the new progress system bears little resemblance to the previous mess. It is much more powerful, allowing us to create, manage, and receive updates about units of work. And, we will continuously improve it...

I love this message yes we do that all the time. The most funny aspect is that I do not thin that many people realize how much the system improved. It is like an iceberg :)
