currently, most of the server tasks are using the same UI as download/uploads, meaning that the number of task is displayed along with a progress bar.

This is the case for:
  • editing files tagsĀ 
  • creating new pack/collection

For those kinds of tasks it doesn't make sense to display progress bars, and sometimes is even confusing to the user as the app seems to be processing some downloads activities when only few infos are being updated.

We should implement a special case for those tasks, and simply display an animation instead of the task number and the progress bar.

For the tasks mentioned above, simply display the spinning wheel at the same position as the task progress bar when such tasks are in progress.

Note:

-Clicking on the spinning wheel doesn't open the tasks popup

-The task popup has higher priority over the spinning wheel, meaning that if some upload/download tasks are in progress at the same time as tags are being updated, the regular task panel with progress bar is displayed.

-It is possible that other types of task needs to follow the same logic, which i may have not included in the description.
If it is the case, we'll iterate later on to include those tasks as well.

Hi,

I'm making additional tests.
I would however increase the start time of the animation, and keep the end time as it is.
