Hi,
Would be so useful to have on the node somewhere of a Loop Start node, what loop number it is on, and how many loops there are, i.e. Loop 4 of 10.
At the moment, having to bring up the table and go to Flow Variables tab to see it is a little clunky, to get an idea of current progress.
Thanks
Simon.
Hi @richards99
For this I use the Node Annotaror node. The message which should appear as node annotation. You can access flow variables like current iteration or max iterations within the message.

Thanks very much for this. I didn’t know about this node!
Hi @richards99
Your question inspired me to make the Loop Progress a little bit more user friendly. I created 3 components to track the Loop Progress.
Since there is always room for improvent. I combined those 3 components into 1.
You can find the components on My KNIME Hub:

Nice components @HansS. I’d made a component using Node Annotator for similar reasons, but with just the basic iteration counter.
I particularly like your ideas for including percentage and group information.
That’s really nice - I didn’t know about those nodes 
An you have the ‘NoOp’ nodes too - I’ve been thinking about writing exactly those nodes for exactly the same purpose for some time

Great to see these darlings in action - if you have any feedback, comments, requests, you know who to reach out for
