Description

Reported by @mneuwert during 1.2 regression stage (https://github.com/owncloud/ios-app/issues/550#issuecomment-565857183):

Progress view in the activity being updated is wildly jumping.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start uploading bunch of photos
  2. Switch to status view

ezgif-7-1eacce201291

the root cause maybe is that:

  • Table view is set up to calculate height automatically
  • When a new activity is added, whole table is reloaded -> recalculation of height, re-layout etc. causing jumping effect.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by uploading multiple photos and switching to the status view. Inspect the activity table's automatic row-height calculation and the full-table reload when new activities arrive; done means the progress view remains stable while uploads update.
