SUMMARY Dolphin opens new window or tab when compressing or extracting archives STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Select some files in Dolphin 2. Right click and compress from context menu 3. When complete, a new tab or window opens * Extracting produces the same results OBSERVED RESULT A new window or tab (depending on your Dolphin configuration) opens in the same location as where you were in the first place, thus redundant. EXPECTED RESULT No new windows or tabs for such a function. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.22.5 Qt Version: 5.15.2
Confirmed on Neon Unstable for the "Compress Here (as TAR.GZ)" case For the "Extract archive here" case, no new tab but a blue folder bouncing launch feedback next to the mouse pointer (which doesn't go away). Dolphin: 21.11.70 Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.86.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.11.0-27-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 2 × AMD A6-6400K APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics Memory: 7.7 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD CEDAR
