"Checking for updates…" should be horizontally aligned

[Adnane Belmadiaf]

The loading indicator should be the same as the gallery-app loading indicator

Thank you for your bug report, confirming the issue, I'm going to have a look at fixing that

Hey Matthew, could you comment on whether the label should be left en center aligned? The mockup don't have empty space so they don't describe the case described there

Sebastien,

Looking at r179 in devel, it seems the "checking for updates" label is positioned underneath the page header so there appears to be no feedback to the user while checking. Should the label be vertically centered as well?

[Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt)]

Adnane, thanks for this suggestion. However, this situation is different from the Gallery in two important ways.

First, as shown in the spec, the spinner and progress text may be above a list of updates that is already present. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#Manually_checking> That means it can't reasonably be vertically centered as Dennis suggested.

Second, once bug 1272313 is fixed there will be a "Stop" button opposite the progress text. It would be a bit weird if the position of that button depended on how long "Checking for updates..." was in your chosen language. So to answer Sebastien's question, the spinner and status text should be on the left, while the button is on the right.

If the header appears over the top of the screen by default, please report that as a separate bug. I don't see that in r188.
