Description Zakhar 2018-03-03 23:04:51 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
-Open Dolphin
-Righ Click on directory big enough so ark takes at least 45seconds to compress
-Select Compress --> any item

Results: No progress dialog

This is horrible when selecting a large directory causing me to revert to command line with verbose output.

Do you mean you don't see the progress either on the task manager or in the notification area? or just a dialog as with Winrar in Windows.
Comment 2 Zakhar 2018-03-18 23:28:38 UTC
This is a followup of 391361

I meant dialog like in "winrar on windows" please read the mentioned bug
Comment 3 Zakhar 2018-03-18 23:29:48 UTC
I meant a follow up of >> 391697 << not the one I listed above.

Hi Zakhar,

This is not Ark-specific functionality.
KDE Plasma Apps don't have their own progress bars, all of them use KDE Frameworks libraries to provide the same, consistent way of displaying notifications and progress bar.

That's why Elvis recommended in #391697 to raise a feature request for frameworks-kio product, not Ark as Ark doesn't handle that.

Fact is that this is the KDE way of displaying progress bar, using notifications area instead of it's own window.
So, raising a feature request there (frameworks-kio) is actually asking for changing default behavior for all KDE apps and I don't think it will happen as not using own window is an intended behavior.

Personally, I'm a bigger fan of current implementation - notifications area +  working progress bar in task manager area (when run from dolphin).
Comment 5 Zakhar 2018-04-08 21:47:12 UTC
Resolved because requesting feature via inappropriate KDE component. Will bug proper component.
