Apr 12, 2018 at 1:23 comment added CJ Dennis You're not currently tracking progress, you're tracking the amount remaining of the task. This can make sense if the size of the task can change while it's being done. See "burndown charts", Agile Estimating and Planning, Mike Cohn.
Apr 11, 2018 at 20:49 comment added Pablo H Perhaps you feel it natural to "deplete" the progress bar because it mirrors the warehouse employees are picking from. 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 14:22 comment added Joshua Taylor If it needs to go from 100% to 0%, don't call it a Progress Bar, but a Congress Bar. (And yes, I know that the opposite of progress isn't congress, but that's how the joke goes...)

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.
