"File not found" - direct ZIP/RAR import


Recommended Posts

Example: Import AI or EPS file directly from ZIP/RAR via Drag'n'Drop

Expected Behaviour: Corresponding file opens up as new file inside the active window of affinity designer.

Actual Behaviour: Error message occurs "File not found" with path "C:/Users/Username/AppData/Local/Temp/SomeSortOfHash/FileFromTheZip.ai" - file is not imported.

Hi JohaWeber,

Just quickly tried this myself using both Windows Extraction Utilities and 7-Zip but couldn't reproduce the issue. Windows Tools just failed to display anything, and 7-Zip just gives me a 'No' cursor when trying to do the same. 

What extraction utility are you using?

Using 7-zip (x64) - full install, not portable. I also get the "No" cursor when trying to drag'n'drop it to an opened file - BUT: It show me this "insert" cursor when trying to drag'n'drop it to the upper bar of the affinity-HUD - as if I would want to open the dragged file as a new file inside affinity and not insert it to an existing/opened one. When going this way (drag'n'drop to open as new file) I get the error message.

 

Same with WinRAR - latest version, full install/not portable, x64

Ahh reproduced it now - turns out the behaviour I get is only when you have no document open. With a document open you get the behaviour you are seeing.

I'll get it passed on - thanks!

This was fixed in a recent beta release (#84)
