Summary

As a user, when finding/managing duplicates, it is not possible to know how far through the process you are, or how many entries are left to be processed. The requisite information is apparently already available, but it is only shown after closing the Possible duplicate entries dialog (see screenshot below)

Improvement

In the Possible duplicate entries dialog, display the current (entry) number and total possible duplicate count to the dialog.

This may be in the form of:

Where X is current entry cursor value and Y is the total possible duplicate count ...

  • Updating the Dialog window title, appending "Entry X of Y" to the title, that updates each time the entry cursor is updated or moved to the "next item".
  • Add "Entry X of Y" to the right of the diff display multi-select control

Unless someone says otherwise, I would like to work on this.

resolves JabRef#7366

When processing duplicate entries,
Possible Duplicates dialog gave no indication as to progress.

To address this lack of feedback,
a progress counter was added to the title bar.

The title property now contains two updatable properties:
1) A total count of all duplicates
2) a count of how many duplicates have already been addressed

They are updated with listeners and bindings to
provide real time feedback.

https://builds.jabref.org/main and report back if it works for you. Please remember to make a backup of your library before trying-out this version.
