Description Riccardo Robecchi 2021-02-06 13:07:01 UTC
SUMMARY
Ark does not allow to sort files inside an archive by type. This means that if I only want to extract files of a certain type, I have to manually select them - which can be a daunting task if I have hundreds of them.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open an archive

OBSERVED RESULT
There is no way to sort files by type.

EXPECTED RESULT
The user can sort files by type.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: KDE neon Focal
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.78.0
