When the Progress Bar Appears

  • The progress bar is shown only when the data source status is in progress and preparation takes 1 minute or longer.

  • It appears starting with the second data source preparation. This is because the app requires a completed preparation cycle to calculate and display the expected time.

  • If the data source uses Continuous automatic data updates:

    • The progress bar won’t be shown if it’s the only data source in the list.

    • If there are two or more such data sources, the progress bar will appear for any where preparation takes 1 minute or longer.

  • If data source preparation takes just a few seconds, a simple loading spinner may appear instead of the progress bar.
