Hi Gregor, what is your Plasma version? Ark does set the "target filename" and here on Plasma 5.9 I can see it in the notification plasmoid. Hi Elvis, I formerly used Plasma 5.8.x. I now also retried with Plasma 5.9.2 and now I see the correct target filename. Problem solved quicker than expected. :) Git commit 957cb17fe81317eae27eae2b8a97a4c44d0f5be2 by Elvis Angelaccio. Committed on 13/03/2017 at 17:33. Pushed by elvisangelaccio into branch 'master'. Improve AddJob description 'Adding a file' is too generic, 'Compressing a file' is what is actually going on. Differential Revision: D5027 M +1 -1 kerfuffle/jobs.cpp https://commits.kde.org/ark/957cb17fe81317eae27eae2b8a97a4c44d0f5be2 Hi Elvis, thanks. I like those details :). Although, it just came to my mind that there is at least one case where "Adding a file" would be more correct than "Compressing a file" - when there are files added to an uncompressed tar archive. |
Created attachment 104497 [details] Cannot distinguish the two compression processes I ran into the following situation: 1) Right click a folder in dolphin -> Compress -> Compress to... -> select target file 2) Do the same with another target filename and compression format 3) By watching the file sizes of the created archives grow I realized that the second compression would be quicker than the first one 4) My goal was now to stop the first compression process by using the Stop button in the Notifications popup, see attached screenshot. 5) Unfortunately, there was no way to figure out which of the two items belong to which compression process. I chose one at random and it was the wrong one -- somehow I already expected this ;-). WISH: 1) The "Adding a file" title label could be replaced with "Compressing with Ark". 2) There could be a subtitle which shows the target filename.
