Description

bug

Describe the bug
After you select the Xcode version you click the "Install" button and it looks like nothing is happening. I kept pressing that button over and over again and getting frustrated that I got absolutely no feedback that the command was acknowledged. 5 min later I noticed a progress bar overlayed on top of the icon in the dock! That wasn't obvious at all! T

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Expected behavior
The progress bar should be visible right under the "install" button and the button should be disabled while the command is in progress.
