Indicate that ArcGIS Pro is loading when creating a new mobile geodatabase
ArcGIS Pro 3.1.1; mobile geodatabase
Creating a new mobile geodatabase in Catalog takes some time. There doesn't seem to be an indication that ArcGIS Pro is loading/processing while the new mobile geodatabase is being created.
Video:
I wonder if new users might not realize that Pro is processing during that time; they might think it has crashed. I know I did when I first started using mobile GDBs in Pro.
Is there anything that can be done to communicate to the user what's happening -- such as a progress bar, a loading wheel, etc.? For example, when I create a file geodatabase, I see a loading wheel next to the folder name:
But I don't see a loading wheel when creating a mobile geodatabase. (I do see a loading wheel when deleting the mobile geodatabase, just not when creating one.)
Could that UI behavior be improved? It's a small thing, but small things add up to an overall positive/negative user experience, so I thought I'd ask.
