Feature request: progress when querying

Post by Janus »

I have been using the content:??? system to quickly scan for files matching both name and content.
I normally use ztree for this, which is fine on my main machine, but sometimes the files spread across multiple machines.
Right now it says querying, which is nice, but I sometimes think it may be frozen if there are a lot of files to check.

I would like to request in the UI, a progress or status in the form of

xx of yy files scanned.
Or
xx bytes of yy bytes scanned.

Either would be a very appreciated addition, though both would be optimal.
Update every two seconds to make it readable, with a visible blink, yet up to date.

Future versions of Everything will show a progress bar and results will be added as they are found.

Content searching and property searching can be canceled easily from the progress bar.

Thank you for the suggestions.
