Description Dave Bordoley [Not Reading Bug Mail] 2002-11-06 23:24:17 UTC 
It would be nice if nautilus changed the mouse pointer when loading folders
(especially for us who do not use the toolbar).

I had in mind the mouse pointer mozilla uses when loading web pages
(pointer + watch). This pointer will give visual indication that work is
being done, however will not block the users interaction with the loading
folder or with the window.

This seems fixed for spatilus. Do we want to do this for the browser mode too,
or should we just close this?
Comment 5 Christian Neumair 2004-10-19 18:49:53 UTC 
Of course we want this in browser mode as well. Maybe we should bind a cursor
change to the view frame widget (if possible), and display clock + cursor for
the rest of the spatial and browser window (toolbar, menu, sidebar).
