Is your feature request related to a problem?

Hi, i appreciate being able to see the progress of the transfer, but i'd like to be able to see the transfer speed itself, so i can quality check the speed of the transfer (and compare it with other applications or file hosters for that matter). It would also be nice to have a clue of the estimation of the end of the transfer.

Describe the solution you'd like to see.

So please add a tab indicating the current transfer speed (a simple 6.4MB/s f.ex. will do). And another tab for the estimated time remaining for the end of the transfer ( (like ending in 00:15:25).

Thanks for the suggestion. This sounds like a good idea. Do you have any ideas for how this could be presented to the user in a good way? I’m a bit unsure where to put it to be honest

[ihubgit]

you could just add it before (or after) the progress bar f.ex. as extra columns.

I'm not sure if that would look very good unfortunately and it would become unnecessary information has soon as the transfer has completed

[ihubgit]

but that's also true for the other information once the transfer is finished no ? Alternatively, you may want to display it as a pop up when hovering over the progress bar f.ex. but i suppose that's harder to code than an extra column. If you make those extra columns an option for the end user, he can decide whether to display them or not.

I'm not that sure about extra columns and hiding them. I'm a bit worried that it will start looking like an Excel sheet. Perhaps showing a small pop-up when hovering the progress bar could be a good idea?

[ihubgit]

yea that's fine with me.
