Calculating the fee to send DRK

[fabioganga]

Dear friends,

I have a wallet with 3.6530947 DRK that I want to transfer entirely to a new wallet.

In order to completely empty the wallet, how much do I have to transfer including the fee?

I have tried with the figures like 3.6030947 DRK, and each time I get this error: "Transaction too large".

Can you please help me to determine exactly what figure I should put in in order to completely empty the wallet?

Many thanks!

Enable coin control and select all the addresses, it will tell you what the fee will be.

You can move all the little chunks bit by bit into one address (or a new address) in-wallet, and when they're all consolidated into one lump, you might avoid a fee altogether when sending it elsewhere.

Unfortunately it still does not work.
Coin control tells me that the fee to send the entire balance is 0.214 DRK, leaving an after fee balance of 3.4390947.
Yet, it still tells me that the transaction is too large.
Btw... The fee is about 8% of my balance!!! It's very very high... :-(
It's annoying having to lose 8% of my hard sweated mined coins just because I have an encrypted wallet generated a while ago and because I receive a warning when I open the new wallet... :-((

Thanks, I intend to keep them in the wallet for a while though.... I don't plan to spend them or sell them at present.
