By delete I mean sent to the trash. I strongly agree. The feedback we currently have is too subtle. We have some feedback for this in the status bar. However, that information has become buggy and is sometimes shown to shortly or not at all. I see two approaches to fixing the lack of clear feedback: - Fix/Improve the status bar: Currently the status bar isn't very smart about which information to show. There might be two important messages coming in at the same time in which case only one of them will be displayed. Instead it should queue those messages and give each of them time to be displayed. - Have some additional feedback/animation e.g. when files are deleted: Pretty much every user has the trash/wastebin folder visible in the places panel on the left. There are various ways with which we could symbolise when and how many items have been deleted. 1. The trash could pulsate once for every item moved to it. 2. the items could visually fly into the trash in the sidebar. 3. the text of the trash could change for a moment to say "3 items added". There are most likely even more sensible solutions than that. |
