User Friendly "Load" Window (Desktop/Refresh Data)

Submitted by on ‎05-19-2025 03:22 PM

The "Load" screen for refreshing data in the desktop version is very non-user friendly.  Each data source is using THREE LINES to display status, and you can only see up to 5 sources at a time before having to scroll the window.

  • Ideally, this should be displayed in a table format with columns for Table/Query Name, Rows Loaded, and Source
  • The sources should each show a checkmark when the data load for that source is completed (could be another column)
  • Source(s) should be listed in order of status... Completed, Currently Downloading, and Pending Download, so it's easy to see what's currently happening.

Agree - I hate that dialog box! Finding out which table is stalling, or getting an idea of the load order because of dependencies is virtually impossible. I'd just like to see a text log window myself.
