Bug ID: 359565
Summary: Drag and drop functionality inconsistent with file
manager behaviour
Product: ark
Version: 2.19
Platform: unspecified
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: elvis.angelac...@kdemail.net
Reporter: s...@ice-d.com
CC: rak...@freebsd.org
When extracting a file via drag and drop if the file is in a directory
hierarchy in the archive then the hierarchy is created in the destination
folder for the destination file.
The expected behaviour is that the drag and drop functionality to be the same
as dragging and dropping between folders in a file manager (such as dolphin).
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open an archive with a file(s) in a folder hierarchy
2. Expand the hierarchy to display the file.
3. Click and drag the file into a file manager to extract it.
Actual Results:
The folder hierarchy is created then the file is extracted to match the
hierarchy in the archive.
Expected Results:
When selecting a file or folder the selection should be placed directly into
the destination directory rather than creating the archive hierarchy.
I find the current behaviour inconsistent with how you would expect file
managers to work with dragging and dropping, but I do realise this behaviour
may come down to personal preference. As such, adding an option to toggle
between current and the requested behaviour, rather than changing the current
behaviour, might be necessary.
