Progress bar when working on multiple images

I like to use XnView for 'batch' rotation, which it does perfectly. I select all images with ctrl-A and then use lossless rotation based on exif value. A minor thing is that it looks as if the program hangs, while it is working on the batch of selected images.

Please can you add a progress bar, so I know the program is still responsive?

Progress bars, "I'm busy" alerts, etc., are desperately needed in many places in XnView and have been requested several times previously.

Yeah, yes, OK. It seems quite a few people are missing 'feeback messages' somewhere somehow.

I have not been using XnView extensively yet, mostly because I thought it was crashing all the time (while it was nicely working, but just pretty busy :| ).

Hope this issue will get a little higher priority for a next release. A fine program like this (in terms of functions) simply deserves a little smoother user interaction. But I know from experencie it is a LOT of work for the programmer. Nevertheless, this software is well on its way to become a winner in its category.
