Description Soukyuu 2016-12-25 18:24:34 UTC 
Test case:

- compress some files with max compression to .rar (method "-m5 -md=256K")
- modify a file externally
- drag and drop file into archive
- confirm overwrite
- check archive info

-> newly added file has "-m3 -md=256K" instead of "-m5 -md=256K"
-> newly file also shows weird values for "size" and "compressed" until archive is reopened

The last few updates really improved Ark, many thanks to everyone involved! 
Merry Christmas!
