Single file upload status bar

    Hi,

    When will you implement a feature with a progress bar on single file upload fields upon submit?

    Simply having the Submit button saying "Please wait..." makes the majority of our clients think the browser is frozen. 

    From looking at the forum this request goes back 6 years... It is 2018 and people are used to seeing either a bar that fills in with color as the upload progresses, a percentage counter that updates or at least a spinning wheel of some sort to indicate that something is happening.

    The fact that some browsers can show an inconspicuous status bar at the bottom is not good enough. People are looking at their form, the submit button or the file upload field and expect to see progress.

    And I know that you have a status bar on your multiple file upload fields. We need this implemented on the single file upload field as well.

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Thank you,

    -silver

    The file upload field can be set to accept multiple files and then set to 1 file for the multiple limit.

    This way, the progress indicator is shown but the field is still limited to one file.
