Show a progress bar while uploading a document in the webclient

For the users it is very confusing, that no progress bar is shown while uploading a document. This confusion leads to clicking on next again and again..... or they click on abort after a while.

So there should be an progress bar that shows the upload, or better a new dialog, that shows the user that his click on next startet the upload.

    I tried to enter a mp4 video as a reference file of >10Mb. It took some time when importing, did not see any status bar, but I did get the metadata input pop up window. Then finally after entering all details and finishing manual import of the metadata, I did see the status bar moving with a green bar and "import: succeed". (Only side note question: I cannot/view open an '.mp4' in Meridian... or can I?)

    The reply I received back was: there isn't any information related to improve this process in future releases... This behavior is actually monitoring quantities of documents and not the process of uploading files. --> The status progress bar should show a % upload or at least every 6 sec. a bar movement.

    Lastly, I hope this will be corrected and included as a patch in all existing versions, and not just the latest software!

    Rudi Pieters Mar 7, 2018 Good suggestion and timely, as we will be modernizing the UI of upload. Added this to the change request.
