Would love to!  Give me a few days.  I will create  a single and multiple LUKS partition flash drive and see if I can resize things

Oh, 0.26 corrected the NTFS issue over on my Fedora bug 1333586

Please note that GParted does not support resizing LUKS encrypted
partitions at this time.  Quoting the announcement for GParted 0.26.0:
(http://gparted.org/news.php?item=198)

  26 April 2016: GParted 0.26.0

  This release adds read-only support for LUKS encrypted file systems.
  GParted identifies these with the addition of "[Encrypted]" and can
  show the file system within an open LUKS encrypted mapping.  However
  this release can not open or close the LUKS encryption and can not
  modify the encrypted file system within.

Thanks,
Mike Fleetwood (GParted Developer)

I don't think you can do that with 0.26. Please see Mike's comment.

Hi Mukundan,

Uhhh.. .  I don't mean to be dense, but where do I download the RPM from?  I can't find it on the page you gave.

No worries. See here - https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=13869629

I am assuming you are running x86_64. If not, just click on the green "buildarch" links to get the page with the package downloads.

Looking good  Thank you!

I let my eyes get bigger than my stomach on the re-sizing thing. Gparted just keeps getting better and better.  Eventually, we will be able to re-size LUKS partitions.
