OS:                Linux

Chapter 4. Basic Functions
Title: Basic File Management
Subheading: Copying and Moving

"Preserve attributes (only on local targets)" check-box was removed in Copy or Move Dialog. Description of copying or moving files/directories isn't actual in the article.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
translation documentation

Actual Results:  
To copy or move files/directories just select them and press <keycap>F5</keycap> to <keycap>copy</keycap> or <keycap>F6</keycap> to <keycap>move</keycap> them. If the <guimenuitem> Preserve attributes (only on local targets)</guimenuitem> option is checked, &krusader; will try to preserve all attributes (time, owner, group) of the local files according to the source depending on your permissions: 
<itemizedlist> 
<listitem> 
<para>User preserving if you are root</para>
 </listitem>
 
<listitem> 
<para>Group preserving if you are root or member of the group</para>
 </listitem>
 
<listitem> 
<para>Preserving the timestamp</para>
 </listitem>
 </itemizedlist>
Using this option may slow down the copy/move process. A dialog will appear and allow you to choose the operation destination. The default destination is the other-panel browsed directory. If you enter a partial &URL;, &krusader; will use the current panel directory as the &URL; base.

Expected Results:  
To copy or move files/directories just select them and press <keycap>F5</keycap> to <keycap>copy</keycap> or <keycap>F6</keycap> to <keycap>move</keycap> them. &krusader; will try to preserve time of modification. If directory is copied owner will changed to user name which works with file, group will changed to deafault group of user and permissions are changed. If file is copied owner will changed to user name which works with file, group will changed to deafault group of user and permissions are preserved. If directory or file is moved owner, group and permissions will preserved. When you copying or moving files/directory a dialog will appear and allow you to choose the operation destination. The default destination is the other-panel browsed directory. If you enter a partial &URL;, &krusader; will use the current panel directory as the &URL; base.

Thanks for the report.
Comment 2 Lukas Vlcek 2011-11-02 13:01:24 UTC
One more small bug:
to replace word "file" to "directory":
Actual:
When copying a directory owner is changed to the user which copies the file, group is changed to the default group of the user.
Expected:
When copying a directory owner is changed to the user which copies the directory, group is changed to the default group of the user.

The checkbox is still missing for me in version 2.4.0-beta3 "Single Step" installed from OpenSUSE KDE4.9 repo.
