Problem
When syncing multiple folder rows, I need to know what has completed.
Example
Sync Row 1 - Backup my projects
Sync Row 2 - Backup my movies
Requirement
Provide progress on each of the rows as they sync so I can determine when I can continue with my projects. It may take 5 minutes to backup projects, but 6 hours to backup movies. I need to know when projects has completed. This is an example, I actually have 9 rows.
Potential UI Update
Update the actual rows in the UI with progress percent or bar.
Windows UI - Progress

Did you try having different syncs for your projects and movies backup;
each sync running in a separate FFS instance.
For this to work, you need to assure there is no overlap in the scope
of these two syncs.
Alternatively, you may simply run the multiple syncs consecutively.
You can do that e.g. from a script that waits for the present FFS sync to end before launching the next sync.

Thanks for the reply.
Yes I could run them consecutively, but that's extra work on my part - I want the tool to do the hard work :) - of course, that means if I want to add a new folder pair I'd need to add a new config file, then edit the batch file, then run the batch file (then I'd have popups of FFS windows coming and going, or a CMD interface) - both of which are undesirable.
