Move folder to inside of another folder

Post by terje »

It would be great if I could move a folder (and the tree it contains) into another folder. At the moment I only seem to be able to move folders around at the same level that they were created. For simple folders it is trivial to delete and recreate. However for complex trees it would be good to have a little more flexibility.

You can move a folder (and the tree it contains) into another folder. Under one condition - destination folder (FolderB) should have some subfolder (FolderB\FolderC).
I mean if destination folder is empty (FolderB), create temporary subfolder (FolderC) then move target folder (FolderA) inside FolderB and remove temporary FolderC

Thanks.

To get it to work I had to:-

1. Create the temp subfolder as described.
2. Open the tree.
3. Drop the folder being moved into the tree subsection of the destination folder rather than onto the destination folder.

Not that intuitive but easy now that I know.
