How will I know if El Capitan is the download?  Should there be a progress bar?

I'm trying to upgrade to El Capitan of Mavericks on an iMac 2011.  In the app store, I clicked on 'get', and he said now "Download" in the same space a little more than half an hour.  Is there a progress bar or something similar to let me know what happens?  What IS happening?  Don't know what to look for and I see other posts where people speak of it takes a lot of time, but there is nothing tell me at any % is done.

Thank you

Hello.

You are in the right place!

You should be able to see the status by clicking the launch pad iconof your Dock.

On a connection high speed, it can last from an hour to an hour and a half. Your iMac itself may restart several times during the download and installation process. It's normal. Apple just do the work for you.
