            Bug ID: 458898
           Summary: Inline filesystem operation progress bars
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: kde at flavor8.com
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

On one of my systems, the OS notifications that pop up for filesystem
notifications no longer appear. I have no idea about whether an operation has
finished or not.

Request: make this inline to dolphin, perhaps in addition to OS notifications.
Take inspiration from Chrome or Firefox's handling of downloads, so that
there's a clickable icon in the UI that shows a list of in progress operations
on click or hover. (If there is one already, it's not obvious enough.) Ideally
the icon would itself show some status, e.g. would be a pie that's filled based
on the percentage of completion across all operations.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Do significant filesystem operations (copy, move, etc)
2. Somehow misconfigure your system so that OS notifications don't pop up for
dolphin

OBSERVED RESULT
User is confused as to whether the operation has completed

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be somewhere obvious within Dolphin to get at any in progress
operations
