Streamlined Copy Progress Display (Jobs Bar)

• The new Jobs Bar lets you see and manage all current file operations
  
  If you tend to have multiple file operations happening at once you have probably found it hard to manage the individual progress dialogs that Opus creates. The new Jobs Bar displays a button for each currently running job and lets you quickly and easily keep an eye on, and manage, multiple simultaneous file operations.
  
                      
  
  You can configure the Jobs Bar to appear automatically whenever a job is started (with the Preferences / File Operations / Progress Indicators / Display the jobs bar automatically when starting a new job option), or you can open and close it manually (using the Set JOBSBAR command). The buttons show basic information about the job (the action, source and destination) and the current progress in the form of a bar graph. The color of the bar graph indicates the current state of the job (running, paused or error).
  
  The Jobs Bar buttons also let you manage the jobs directly. Click a button to display its progress dialog - click it again to hide it.
  
                      
  
  If you right-click the button a context menu is displayed that lets you pause, resume or abort the job.
  

• Progress indicators can be minimized by default
  
  In conjunction with the new Jobs Bar it's now possible to configure Opus to minimize all progress indicators automatically. This can dramatically streamline your workflow - if you are launching multiple simultaneous file operations it can be incredibly distracting to have progress indicators popping up in front of the Lister every time you launch an operation.
     
                      
  This can be enabled by turning on the Minimize progress indicators option. You can also set progress indicators to only minimize when the Jobs Bar is visible - that way, you can manually open the Jobs Bar when you want to start a lot of operations simultaneously and have the normal behavior when the Jobs Bar is closed.
  
  Note that when the Jobs Bar is visible and a new operation is started with its progress indicator minimized, a subtle animation is used to provide visual feedback of the newly started job.
  
  
• Progress indicators can be hidden from the taskbar and Alt+Tab list
  
  Extending the above concept even further, this new option lets the individual progress indicator windows be hidden from the taskbar altogether. The only place they will appear when minimized is on the Jobs Bar - for this reason, you have to turn on the option to display the Jobs Bar automatically in order to select this behavior.
  
                      
  
  When enabled, progress indicators won't appear on the taskbar or the Alt+Tab program list - when minimized (either manually, or automatically using the above option) they will instead be completely hidden. You can keep track of their progress and redisplay the progress indicator using the Jobs Bar buttons. If no Jobs Bars are visible (say because you have closed the Lister) the progress indicators will reappear on the taskbar.
