Current behaviour
It’s difficult to see how many blocks remain to be downloaded.
Expected behaviour
It should be possible to see how many blocks are remaining.
Possible solution1:
Make message re-sizeable.
Make message screen larger in width.
Make message description shorter.
Make it possible to copy & paste the text so the user can paste it elsewhere to get a better idea.
Make the text scrollable, perhaps by using an edit box instead of label.
Display the number of blocks remaining in a special control/edit box so that even if the text is long and overwrites it it will go under it and now over it.
Initial screen:
Secondary screen after a while:
