Over FTP, Flow will quite frequently corrupt files, when uploading, and possibly when downloading.
Using default settings, just drag-drop. See image for an example of what this does:

Inappropriate?Does this happen when leaving Flow idle (while connected) for a period of time, or right away after connecting?

Inappropriate?Hi Brian - It looks like the former: it happens after leaving Flow idle, while connected. The transcript looks like this (Ooh, ASCII transfer mode...plus that damn 550 SIZE error):
421 No Transfer Timeout (300 seconds): closing control connection.

Just a quick update on this –– I'm 99% sure this issue has been resolved in the latest internal builds. I'll have verification in a few days :) -
Inappropriate?Thanks, Brian. Would love to see a fix for this soon, even if it's an unofficial one. This is a big issue for me, and as Cyberduck (Flow's temporary replacement till this is fixed) crashes all the time, I'm keen to move on.
