Description cesar 2007-04-30 11:18:38 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

I can't find any dialog for multivolume creation on ark. It should be something like in WinRAR.

Could you please describe how exactly this works in WinRAR? I don't think I 
ever used it before, so it is kind of difficult to find out what exactly 
you want.


Thank you!

Hi Henrique:

   Do you speak spanish? I am from Spain. The name (except the H) looks
like spanish.

   When you are trying to compress a file with WinRAR you can do with
the secundary mouse button and then click one of the three options
available for compression on the pop up menu, two are direct ones, the
other open the application. Up to this point the behavoiur is pretty
similar how KDE works.

   Once you open the application (WinRAR), there is a dialog on the
bottom of the screen for multiple volume management. This dialog is
disabled by default, with a radiobutton you enable it and then you can
choose the size of each volume. You can either choose a fix value
(floppy, CDROM, DVD, DVD-double layer, FAT-16, FAT-32 sizes) or
introduce a custom value, up to you. You control that through a editable
pop menu.

   It is very handy, since I usually work with big volumes, let's say a
double layer DVD image that you have to move to a FAT-32 device or CD-ROM.

   Thank you very much for this reply,


César

I'm sorry, but I don't speak Spanish. I'm Brazilian.

We're about to merge this feature in the upcoming Application 16.08 release. However, this wish is basically a duplicate of #124180
