Description 246824681 2007-08-10 01:09:08 UTC 
Version:           2.6.4 (using KDE 3.5.7, Kubuntu (feisty) 4:3.5.7-0ubuntu1~feisty2)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.20-16-generic

I can't find any option in ARK to change the compression rate, when I add a file to an zip/rar... archive.
I don't know how to compress anyway with ark, it just adds the files without any compression, if there's any feature ARK or KDE, I can't find it, so it's worthless for me.

Could you please add somthing like in, Xarchiver, Winrar, Winzip, and lots of other Programs,
there everytime when I add one or more files to an archive, I can change the compression rate, from fast to high or from one to fife.

(Sorry for my bad English)

I'd like to have a possibility to change compression algorithm, method and rate for 7zip archives (how this implemented in 7zip on Windows).

Implement GUI to set compression level for new archives

Three new int's were added to plugin json files specifying minimum,
maximum and default compression level for each readwrite mimetype. A new
KCollapsibleGroupBox with a QSlider was added to CreateDialog to allow
setting the compression level.
