Description Rüdiger 2020-07-09 20:05:05 UTC

SUMMARY
Having 2 windows opened. If I want to move/copy a folder from the left to the main folder on right window by using the mouse, it easily happens that the folder ends up in a subfolder. It should end in the main folder, at least, if I do move the to be copied folder rather on the right side of the right window. So that no subfolder is directly "addressed" or visibly hovered.

Could you please add a screenshot to clarify where you are dragging files, into which folder they land, and which folder you expect them to land?

I actually mostly have the reverse issue that dropping a file always lands into the base folder when using the tree view, and that I have to remember to drop it exactly on the folder name to get them into that subfolder.

Thanks for describing your reverse issue that dropping af file lands into the base folder ...
Yes, I also had this issue before.

But after having reinstalled my system the problem I had that files are ending in a subfolder cannot be reproduced anymore.

So far thanks for taking care. I have closed the bug.
