Spring Loading Progress Bar
In QuarkXPress 2019 (v15.1), we have implemented the progress bar to show
what is actually happening during the spring loading. In the progress bar, the
status is shown for the files which are getting loaded into the cursor. Once the
files are loaded into the cursor, the user can drop into the layout or selected box.
