Status
------

This change has been discarded.


Review request for kdelibs.


Repository: kdelibs


Description
-------

This patch improves the Calculate and Stop buttons in folder properties.
Instead of having two buttons that are enabled/disabled accordingly, we only have one that toggles (technically there are still two buttons but it looks as if there was one)

I removed that "Calculating..." label when there is already a size shown, instead the stop button says "Stop Calculating" and somehow serves as "indicator".
Also, I added a line-break after the "Calculating..." so the label doesn't change its size making the other elements moving around.

I don't know if the additional icons (view-refresh and process-cancel) add too much clutter to the visual interface since this features is not sooo important/frequently used(?) that the buttons need an icon.

Compiles and the buttons toggle (and react) fine.
