Sentry Crash Report:

Description David Alston 2011-05-07 22:13:09 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

It would be great if when I need to move a category into a different sub-section all I had to do was click on the Categories section and then drag it to the place in the hierarchy I want.

The categories probably won't change very much after they've settled.. but anyone who is initially setting up a kmymoney file will greatly appreciate the flexibility.

Reproducible: Didn't try
Comment 1 Cristian Oneț 2011-05-08 09:53:09 UTC 
It's good that a wish for this feature was reported as this feature was present in the KDE3 version and was not ported into the KDE4 version.
Comment 2 Jack 2011-10-08 00:47:55 UTC 
As was discussed on the -devel list, drag and drop has not yet been ported to the KDE4 version, but in the hierarchy tab of the edit category dialog, you can just click on another category to make that the new parent.  The same is true of accounts.  The manual is being updated to reflect the current behavior, but when this bug is closed, those changes will need to be reverted.
Comment 3 Jack 2014-08-30 15:49:21 UTC 
Given the imminent release of a new version - is this included, or is it too late, and we'll just defer it for the frameworks version?
Comment 4 Cristian Oneț 2014-08-30 16:14:25 UTC 
This won't make it into 4.7 but it might make it into 4.8.
Comment 5 Jack 2023-10-26 20:59:35 UTC 
It's still not in 5.1.3, and unfortunately is not a high priority, so it's still on hold.  One additional issue I just discovered is that when you do click on the new parent and the click "OK" the entire dialog gets closed, instead of just showing the altered hierarchy.
