Progress bar naming -- Linked with the #597 DAT Desktop v4 concept

The status is as much about 'download' for the first time you fetch the Dat (in that case, 0-->100% makes sense), as about 'upload' (then the file is 'full', but '100%' says something else like 'complete' downloaded), as about 'updating' (when the Dat-folder will keep itself 'synced').

Labeling of these 3 difference states can still be renamed differently; any proposition ?

Maybe the colors could tell something about the synchronization status:

  • green -> available/normal/healthy/complete
  • blue -> updating/in progress/syncing
  • red -> error

And the progress bar indicator would tell something about the completeness of the local node:

  • 100% -> complete local node
  • < 100% -> partially available on local node

For example, would it be possible to have a "70% red" or "70% green"? What does error mean, if the progress is 100%? How would you show a color, when the progress is 0%?

Good point; the back ground color is light grey, so when 0%, only light grey might be visible. And then blue as the download/sync goes on.

Error needs to be explained indeed.
