Within the card manager, it is possible to select multiple cards to take an action — say, changing from verified to unverified. I’ve noticed that if I’m taking an action on many cards (I have an employee handbook I needed to re-assign verification of cards en-masse) the system can take a while to complete the task at hand. During this time there is no visible indication that something is happening, which on a web app can cause me to think one of three things:
- Did I mess something up?
- Did the app crash or bug out?
- Did my action even get started?
It would be amazing if there was some form of progress indication that something is happening in the background — even a “thinking” progress indicator would be good. When nothing happens, I naturally try again or refresh the browse. The latter may or may not cause an issue, but the former just adds to the queue, compounding my problem. If I saw a spinner or an accurate progress bar (preferred) I think I’d be more patient with the idea my pretty large ask is taking more than a second to execute (which is totally fair).
tl;dr — Can we get some sort of progress indiction when executing actions on multiple cards in the card manager?
