In the last versions there isn't this possibility yet.

So it wouldn't be possible to use it for something else. > 2. Open some archive, select a file from it, Ctrl+C - clipboard is empty. At > attemt to copy the selected file somewhere, nothing happens. This would only work if Ark provided an ioslave, not worth the effort given that nowadays we have working drag-and-drop to copy (extract) entries.
1. I'm with latest version of Ark. I just opened an archive with some files in it. Marked random file in the archive, Ctrl+C, then went to some directory in file manager, Ctrl+V - nothitng happens. 2. Drag & drop isn't something new. I just wont we have an options wich in Windows are present for years. I have migrated fully to Linux before 5 years and this is the one of a few things that irritates me a lot. Just the most elementary option - to copy and paste files from archives to dolphin and vice versa.

Open archive -> select file -> Ctrl+C -> select another folder in the archive -> Ctrl+V -> file is copied within the archive. > 2. Drag & drop isn't something new.

Dolphin can only copy KIO URLs and Ark doesn't provide this kind of abstraction. It would require a lot of work for a feature that can already be used in other ways (extraction dialog, drag-and-drop).

Please do not re-open again. Wontfix means that the development team is not going to implement this feature, for whatever reason (I already explained why, twice). Of course, this is free software so you are free to implement this feature yourself (or pay someone if you can't code). If you are able to provide a good patch, we can consider accepting it.
