[Bug 32484] Re: selection should default to free space

[Phillip Susi]

Ahh, and the normal dialog has to be told which one to allocate from
instead of letting you choose there?  Then perhaps it would be
sufficient to check if free space is already selected when you try to
create a partition, and if it isn't, automatically select the largest
free space?

Title:
  selection should default to free space

Status in Gnome Partition Editor:
  New
Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When gparted opens, the menu option to create a new partition is
  disabled.  This is because it is only active when free space is
  selected, and it is not selected by default.  The free space should be
  selected by default.
