GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 625249
multiple resize operations before applied cause multiple runs of resize operation
Last modified: 2010-07-25 19:21:24 UTC
Today I needed to reduce the size of an NTFS file system. Clicked on resize a first time to set a smaller size, clicked OK and then I changed my mind, reopened the resize window, and set a different size. I clicked "Apply" to apply the changes, and gparted executed ntfsresize two times. I didn't expected this behaviour: I expected just one resize operation, from the old size to the latest size I set. I tried to reproduce the behaviour, and found that if I change the size 8 times opening and closing the resize window, gparted ends up resizing my file system 8 times, wasting a lot of time (and aren't all that operations dangerous?). Please change the default behaviour, so when an user changes multiple times the size of a file system (and nothing else) before clicking "Apply", just one resize operation will start.
Thank you for you interest in GParted. This problem was previously reported. Marking this bug as a duplicate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 438573 ***
