I often have to copy multiple (big) files from different locations.
I want to automatically queue Copy(and/or other operations) Operations
(or have the abilitiy to set them permanently).
So far i can set them only for the current operation (and must set them for every copy file operation manually).
Would be nice if i can have muliple copy operations (with F5) and they are all queued as long as the first one has completed.
Automaticly queue Copy/Pack/etc Operations
There is option to queue 2nd copy/move operation, if one is already running:
If you open Copy/Move dialog, click Options button, and the first checkbox here is "Wait until all other Copy/Move operations are finished". If you check it, the new operation will wait for the previous to finish before it starts.
You can use Alt+W hotkey to check this checkbox even if the Options button is not pressed.
There are some threads about this feature, but all in Czech:

Remember last option
I agree this would be a good thing to add. Having to check this every time I queue up stuff is a pain. Other than that, I love this program.
A thought.
Have our beloved salamander realize that when the source and/or destination of a newly initiated copy/move is the same as an already running copy/move then queue it without question and minimize the copy/move dialogue. Configurable behaviour defaulting to being OFF.
Example:
I'm currently in progress of moving my vacation pictures from c:\pictures to e:\pictures and start a new move of d:\poems to e:\poems. As both want to move to the same destination drive the second move operation would be queued.
However, this doesn't take into account a single harddrive being split into several partitions, nor NTFS junctions. Maybe it's best to not implement this particular behavious after all
Having an option to always have copy/move operations queued if there already is one running is still sound i believe!
