copy windows

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right-click any file
2. Properties
3. File Type Options

OBSERVED RESULT


EXPECTED RESULT


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Ubuntu 21.4
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0 
Qt Version: 5.15.2 (built against 5.15.2)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
My Dolphin is from Kubuntu backport.
My file system is ZFS instead of Btrfs or Ext4.

Some suggestions for copy/cut function:
1. The icon for showing the detail is missing.
2. Copy dialogue should be attached to the main window like in Nemo or be able to minimize it, right now the copy dialogue is obtrusive and bothering that should be in a more hidden way.
3. The speed of operation (copy/copy) could be improved, I compared it with Nemo and it lags behind.
4. (BUG) Sometimes I encounter an error that says it can't write to the destination when cut/copying some files, but when I try to do the same operation with the same file in Nemo, everything goes well. 
Sorry, I can't reproduce this bug because it occurs sometimes. Maybe Dolphin is not fully tested with ZFS.

All in all, the copy/cut function of the Dolphin should be written from scratch and improved dramatically.

It looks like the copy/move progress indicator has been significantly changed (see my attachment).  I don't know when the change was introduced.

Comment 2 Abdolaziz 2021-09-14 12:53:35 UTC
   Hello there

   I saw your attachment, but mine is like the attachment I sent, it
   seems your OS is different than mine.

   Furthermore some of my suggestions and bug are underneath (back-end
   performance) and is not related to the appearances of the copy
   dialogue.
