[Bug 943799] Re: [Feature Request] Unity progress bar for video exports

 

I don't see it as a bug, but I agree it would be a nice enhancement if that would be possible.
The unity Launcher shows the openshot window and for some other programs it shows small status notifications as well.

* running file transfers show a progress bar
* thunderbird shows the number of unread mails

it would be great to show the progress of a running export there as well.
Sure: it's not that much work to open the window again, but video export often takes a long time, and you would like to more or less forget it for a while, but to be possible to get the current progress state at one glance.

Title:
  [Feature Request] Unity progress bar for video exports

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  New

Bug description:
  This is a general feature request.

  When exporting videos form Openshot, I wish there was a way of telling
  its progress from the Unity Launcher, similar to how Transmission and
  Firefox have it. I think it's simply too much work (for such a simple
  operation) to click on Openshot (and go back to my previous
  application) and see what the exporting progress is versus just
  peeking over to the Launcher and seeing the progress right there. It's
  just inconsistent in my opinion.

  Thanks in advance!
