Job Spy
@Katsunami:
Job monitoring workflow varies widely. On one extreme of the continuum, I personally dislike using keyboard shortcuts, so I use only the mouse. To greatly reduce the number of mouse-clicks and mouse-pointer manual repositionings viz a viz using the Calibre Job Dialog et al, I monitor my jobs using the "Job Spy" plug-in which I wrote to exactly match my personal job monitoring workflow and preferences. The mouse pointer on my Windows 10 desktop automatically "snaps" to the default pushbutton on new dialogs, so repositioning the mouse pointer is unnecessary. Left-clicking is sufficient to continue, including closing the current Job Details Dialog, since the "close" button is the default pushbutton for the Job Details Dialog.
At the opposite end of the spectrum there are those who assiduously avoid using the mouse yet still find Job Spy sufficiently ergonomic to use by customizing the Calibre context menu.
Job Spy is "bottom-up", not "top-down", so it will be of little interest to those who are primarily interested in the "overview" statistics available only from the standard Calibre Job Dialog, such as "status", "progress" and "running time". Job Spy only displays detailed Job Logs, not the "overview" of all jobs.
