Copy enhancements
You’ll have a better sense of timing when copying files thanks to a new pie chart progress window. You can even stop or cancel a long copy session and resume it later.

Can anyone post screenshots of this? Really excited to see it, hoping its an improvement over the ancient file copy dialog thats there now.

I guess Apple employees have realized the pain of copying huge files from their homes to their computers at the office and just finally created this future so that they can just get on with their lives!!

I just copied a sizeable file from my NAS to my laptop but there was no new progress bar or pie chart. Either I'm doing something wrong or the feature hasn't been implemented in Beta 1.

I take it they sort of did this;

the function (resume) but without the graphic (pie chart) ...?

you can't even look inside the folder while it is copying. who designed this? so stupid!

next time ill try to create the folder then copy all the files with that folder open. so stupid!

I am also annoyed that sometime when files are downloaded they will appear "Recents" but there is a great delay before they finally appear in the destination folder, sometimes even a new Finder window does not show the new file. BTW, if I am copying more than one small file over LAN I like to use Carbon Copy Cloner instead of Finder.
