Double-clicking a project will open the downloaded site in the internal browser.

The icon indicates that the project is being downloaded at the moment. The icon indicates that the user stopped downloading the project before it was finished.

  • "Url" — the URL of the file being downloaded

  • "Loaded bytes" — how many bytes of the file have been downloaded so far

Status Bar

The Status Bar is divided into several parts:

  1. The progress bar shows the overall progress of downloading the project or indicates that it is finished
  2. Shows the number of files in a queue for parsing, i.e. the files that have been downloaded, but have not yet had their links converted
  3. Shows how many files have been downloaded so far
  4. Shows how many files there are left for downloading to be finished
