quicker copy paste

Post by jasperes »

This would improve the keyboard input experience a lot for me:

To cut or copy a file inside a folder paste it into its destination folder by pressing ctrl+v just by having that folder selected.

This way you save 2 steps as you don't have to go into the destination folder, paste the file and move back to where you were.

Would be a nice and simple time-saving feature me thinks,
thanks, Jasper

If you have a XY pro version you can write a script to do this and assign it to a keyboard shortcut.

I like it, but what if more than one folder is selected? Take the one that is focused and selected?
