I mean Converting... dialog for batch convert.
#1 % processed
#2 File X of Y processed
#3 Mininize button(s)
#4 Time remaining (?)
Example:
Code: Select all
+--------------------------------------+
| 8% Converting... 16 of 200 [_] [x] |
+--------------------------------------+
| Converting... |
| file... |
| |
| |||||| |
| |
| 21 seconds remaining |
| |
| [Minimize] [Cancel] |
+--------------------------------------+

- small improvement - in the title bar should be % in front, to be visible if it would be minimized, so - "8% Converting...". I'll change my original post.

Very useful suggestions. What would the "Minimize button" do? Minimize XnView or minimize the conversion dialog? I think the latter will not help much unless the conversion is a separate thread, separate from XnView browser (I haven't tried it out, yet, I guess Pierre knows).

It should minimize both, xnview and conversion dialog.
Another idea - when done, xnview could be restored dialog "Done" could be shown.
And - such features could be implemented also to other long operations in xnview, e.g. "Extract movie frames" - there is even no progress dialog and it's very long operation.
