When using functions such as "Get file(s)" to download files they will first prepare and zip the files for download. This is because this preperation can take a considerable time and is therefore best prepared in the background. When pressing download or get to downlaod file(s) you will get a toast telling you that your files are being prepared and you will be notified when ready. as shown in the figure below.

When the preparation is done and your files are ready for download, the following toast will be shown in conjunction with the download icon in the tool strip.

To see which file(s) are ready for download you press the blue map with a download sign located at the top of the screen. With the dialog that opened you can see, control and download your downloads. Here there are two bars where you can see the preperation progress and download progress going from gray to green. To easily sort apart the downloads you can see their given description to easily remember which contains what. To download a file or set of files you press the downwards pointing arrow icon where you will get an option to set a filename before pressing download. You can also remove or cancel downloads by pressing the red icon with a cross.
