But progress bars overwhelmingly model progress of tasks. So 100% would be reached when you finish the task, ie picked everything. | |

Apr 11, 2018 at 12:05 | comment | added | Rolf ツ | Why do you think it's not logical to remove something when it has been completed (100%)? If I remove files I'm presented with a progressbar going from 0 to 100 (on most machines). When it reaches 100 I know it completed the task I gave it. | |
