Hello! I think the progress dialog layout in libfm/pcmanfm requires a bit of redesign. Look what it is like up to now: http://www2.rep.kiev.ua/dnld/redesign/progress1.png http://www2.rep.kiev.ua/dnld/redesign/failure1.png And what change I think should make it look nicer: http://www2.rep.kiev.ua/dnld/redesign/progress2.png http://www2.rep.kiev.ua/dnld/redesign/failure2.png What do you think? Your opinions and suggestions are very welcomed. With best regards. Andriy. |

Can you propose any better wording? >How about: >"The file operation was interrupted (aborted?) and some errors were >encountered." Thank you very much. "Interrupted" looks more appropriate there. How about if I insert exact (not abstract) operation there, such as: "Copying file operation was interrupted and some errors were encountered" Would that look correctly? Also there is another icorrect sentence in there: "The file operation is finished, but there are some errors." I think it should look similar to one above but with another verb. >Looking very nice! >Best! Thank you very much! >Piotr Cheers! Andriy. |

How about: "The file operation completed, but some errors were detected."? Thanks and warmest wishes! Piotr |

I would try to minimize the differences between the progress window and the failure window, if you keep the title "Copying files" you don't need to repeat it in the error message, less work for translators :-) see your unmodified progress3 beside a copy and paste with failure3 http://picpaste.com/progress-failure3b.png do we need to keep the progress bar in the failure case? I suppose that it always reaches 100% unless the user pressed Stop -- Daniele Forsi |

How >> about if I insert exact (not abstract) operation there, such as: >> "Copying file operation was interrupted and some errors were encountered" >> Would that look correctly? >I would change "and" with "because" No, this case exactly requires "and" - the message is shown after user press "Stop" button and interrupted the operation. If there were no errors before then window with progress bar will just close. The phrase above will be shown if some errors happened before user interrupted the operation so "and" is correct. >> Also there is another icorrect sentence in there: >> "The file operation is finished, but there are some errors." >> I think it should look similar to one above but with another verb. >errors such as lack of permissions on some files don't interrupt the >copy of other files, so when the two messages are displayed? First one as I said - when user pressed "Stop" button. Second one - when the operation was finished to let user see what problems were encountered with it. >I would try to minimize the differences between the progress window >and the failure window, if you keep the title "Copying files" you >don't need to repeat it in the error message, less work for >translators :-) Well, as I said - the "Copying" ("Trashing", "Changing attributes of", etc.) is my intention to keep, it's why I asked how to merge it with errors notice above. >see your unmodified progress3 beside a copy and paste with failure3 >http://picpaste.com/progress-failure3b.png I thought about that. I just did not redesigned it so much radically, I think the original approach was to show error message at the top of the window, and also common HIG suggest we should put the most relevant info at the top. >do we need to keep the progress bar in the failure case?
