hard to see blockchain loading progress

Open DavidGretzschel opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

It's really hard to see, how far the progress of downloading the blockchain is, because people aren't all that good at distinguishing 5, 6 or 7 digit numbers from each other, just at a glance. Adding in a separator sign after every 3 or 4 digits would help to see this immediately. Maybe add an option to switch between 3 and 4 digits to please Western and Chinese users, alike.

Not only that -- but if you look at the majority of issues that have been posted here in the past few weeks... almost all of them have to do with people not understanding how the 'sync' works.

I would take this idea a step further and completely re-design the way you show sync progress... ~Toss a percentage complete sign somewhere in there ~Make a pretty progress bar

Hi @lock9 ,is there any plan to this issue in NEO3 ?

Hello, @Ashuaidehao this is planned in next neo-gui version, it doesn't influence much neo 3 - it seems more like a 'usability issue' rather than a protocol problem. So, "it will be fixed", but it doesn't relate to neo 3.
