On further investigation, my recommendations are:
- make "Words" and "Msg" look clickable using colour or some other style
- change the text so it is "X% of Words (Y hrs)" or "X% of Messages (Y hrs)"
- add a tooltip to "Words" and "Msg" indicating what happens when it is clicked. e.g.
Showing percentage of words translated.
Click to change to percentage of messages translated.

If it's obvious that Words and Msg are clickable, I don't think the tooltips will add anything. Come to think of it, if we use Words (plural), we should use Msgs, not Msg.

Agreed. We could put something like a clock icon before the remaining hours, and remove the parens: [|||| ] 90% of Words (λ) 1.5 hrs Where (λ) is a clock icon with a tooltip like "Remaining translation time" > > - add a tooltip to "Words" and "Msg" indicating what happens when it is > > clicked. e.g. > > Showing percentage of words translated. > > Click to change to percentage of messages translated. > > If it's obvious that Words and Msg are clickable, I don't think the tooltips > will add anything. My thinking is that if it looks like a link, users may be afraid to click it and be navigated away from the page they're viewing - a tooltip would provide reassurance that clicking is a safe operation that won't lose their place. We could also just go for a presentation would not be easily confused with navigation, e.g. make the whole "X% of Words" unroll on mouseover (or touch) to show both percentages: X% of Words Y% of Messages and make clicking change which is visible by default. > Come to think of it, if we use Words (plural), we should use Msgs, not Msg. Unless we have a severe economy of space, we should consider using the real word "Messages". (In reply to David Mason from comment #3) > We could also just go for a presentation would not be ... *that would not This should be a fairly straightforward change that will be a significant improvement to the affected part of the UI, so we should consider getting it done soon.
