Having Move/Rename
in the same button will be confusing in my opinion, I'd prefer having a separate Move
button that could be used while selecting multiple files/folders and would only accept valid paths.
Not sure if this is a priority, although surely it's a nice to have 👍
Not a priority aright now, but it will get important when we start adding more and more things to MFS from various GUIs.
Some things in the pipeline:
First iteration could just accept and validate paths, but we probably need a smart realtime path completion (like this) to make it fast and useful enough for everyday use.
Move to different folder is very important for me, I would like to move stuff uploaded by browser extension around easily.
This may be an unexpected feature, but one can move file by changing name to include path, for example to move a file one folder higher:
I was about to suggest renaming the label from "Rename" to "Move/Rename", but unfortunately "Rename" is disabled when more than one file is selected:
TL;DR
We seem to be missing UI for "moving multiple files": right now only way to do it is via repeated drag&drop. One per each dir level, which makes it extremely painful if you want move /from/this/deep/dir/ to /some/other/one/.
