Currently, there is no way to tell whether a "Set location..." option has finished or not, other than opening up the destination folder and watching the files move into place one by one.

+1 I think the progress bar in the transfer list should show something like "Moving..." and the progress.

Created an account to give this a +1 as well. Moving large amounts of data with QB this way is quite an unsure process at this point. Just have to let it sit and hope it hasn't hit a snag somewhere.

#2431, #2813, #3305,

It can't, as libtorrent does not provide any 'hooks' into the 'move storage' process, it does not even provide a "move complete" signal, the only indication you will get is that network activity will start up again once the move is complete.

Darn. Well, thanks for clearing that up, at least.
