[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH] [UI] Software Update: Make Update Progress Area Collapsible

[Hongliang Wang]

Hi Adam & Aline, for current stage, I still suggest keep hide/show other 
than close/dismiss.

     For a reasonable user experience, I think we need 2 views: summary 
and detailed.

*Summary View:*
=======================
Updating software...
____________________
_|50%___|

? Details
=======================

*Detailed View:*
=======================
Updating software...
____________________
_|50%___|

? Details
Updating package 1... Finished!
Updating package 2... Finished!
Updating package 3... Finished!
Updating package 4... Finished!
Updating package 5...
=======================

     For user, *progress* is the key information he/she wants. Here, 
let's take a look at the 2 views:
     1) With the overall progress percentage, the user can estimate a 
finish time that he can switch back when the updating is done.
     2) With the detailed information, the user may have the chance to 
correct something, for example, after several updates, the user found 
the updating always fails at 50%, so he/she open the detailed view to 
find the corresponding package and take some action.

     In our current back-end implementation, the user can only know the 
detailed information and not obvious total progress. If we allow 
close/dismiss the progress area, the user will lose everything about the 
progress.
