Auto update path catalog when moving files?

Is it possible to auto update a path if you move a file in the catalog or do you have to set it up from scratch? Couldn't find any setting and as soon as I move a file (in XY explorer) it loses the path. If not that would be a nice feature to have later on so that it auto updates the path when a file is moved.

No not possible currently.

Speaking in my own opinion only, not that of the dev, but I wouldn't get your hopes up about it being added either, because the catalog can store many things not just file/folder links, so validation etc every time you perform a file operation would cause slowdowns.

That's definitely a valid point, could cause slowdowns.
