So we (or rather my employer; being lazy, I was content to just
have the nonlinear progress bar ;-)) wanted a way for the user to
see what steps had been performed and what steps still needed to be
performed and how far through the current step we'd gotten. What we
came up with was a sort of "segmented progress bar". So if there
were 5 steps, we'd have 5 little progress bars lined up next to one
other, with a small gap between them. If we were halfway through
the third step, then the first two progress bars would be filled,
the third half-filled, and the last two empty. We wanted to label
each little progress bar with a short piece of text describing the
step, e.g. "copy", "encrypt", etc. For now we've placed the labels
below the progress bars, but it looks cooler with the text inside
the progress bar.
I would have one progress bar with one label underneath and the text
inside the
label changing as you change task. The current setup sounds rather
weird and
not very clean to me... Regards,
Martin
