If a job is 1 task would it be possible to use the task progress as the job progress?
we do a lot of rendering of single frames and it would be great to have a progress indication in the job panel for those jobs, as it is now they say 0 percent until the job is complete. I know the users can click the jobs and see the status in the task pane, but if we have 100 or more single frame jobs rendering it would be a lot easier if it were updating at the job level too.
thanks,
Hey Troy!
It’s all about performance as far as I understand. We don’t want a bunch of updates to the job list since it could be thousands of entries. At least if a job’s tasks are updating like crazy people can click off.
Maybe one day, but we’re going to have to squeeze every ounce of performance out of Qt before we venture at this. Don’t worry, it comes up often enough that we won’t forget 
So, devs have been lurking in the forums and have corrected me!
It’s been added in 7.0 and I didn’t even notice. It is only for single task jobs though.
