But this is really not the same, because the M/C to new subfolder features ask for the name of that subfolder (with a default based on focus item), as the subfolder's name may change each time!admin wrote:You can achieve the same actions via menu Edit | Copy To... / Move To... or by a UDC (relative paths are recognized, so simply enter the name of the subfolder).

If you don't want to touch the File menu, how about a CKS/Misc then?
And UDC lets you pre-define the name.You are absolutely right, I didn't consider that.admin wrote: However, I don't like that the File menu gets longer and longer...
Yes, that would be the best solution - Misc or File, whatever ;-).jacky wrote: If you don't want to touch the File menu, how about a CKS/Misc then?
Not quite the same, no. I often need to move files into a (new) subfolder, which name is based on at least one of the files being moved.admin wrote:Ok, not the same but similar
I thought about that, and then I asked myself: why are Copy/Move commands in File and in Edit??? I did not like that question so I stopped thinking about it.jacky wrote:Another way could be to add it to the File menu, but in a new submenu along with all other Move/Copy operations ?
It is a good question but I guess to change is a big job. I mentioned this before in another post as there does seem a lot of options to do things thus v10!I thought about that, and then I asked myself: why are Copy/Move commands in File and in Edit???

I went for the CKS/"Miscellaneous" solution. And I like it! Get ready for:graham wrote:dmin wrote:It is a good question but I guess to change is a big job.

Maybe, an interim solution, the specific copy/move ops be put in a dedicated menu to relieve the File/Edit.
Code: Select all
- Copy Here to New Subfolder... (Ctrl+Shift+C)
- Move Here to New Subfolder... (Ctrl+Shift+M)I like it too!admin wrote: I went for the CKS/"Miscellaneous" solution. And I like it!
I like it. Should have done it right away!bergfex wrote:Nothing important, but sometimes it would be very handy to have the same functionality in "Copy/Move Here to New Subfolder" as in "New Path", i.e. to be able to define multi-level paths (Move Here to New Subfolder: folder/subfolder/subsubfolder).
Yeah, on that note I'd love that feature on the Move/Copy Here As feature myself, so I could both move to a new folder (created on the fly) and at the same time rename whatever item I'm moving/copying !admin wrote:I like it.

Thank you so much for that, Don!ChangeLog wrote:* Copy/Move Here To New Subfolder: Now, the new folder is auto-selected if it is contained in the current file list. Before, all selections had been removed.
