Description Martin Riethmayer 2023-03-30 09:41:29 UTC

SUMMARY
I would appreciate the ability to drag a folder from the breadcrumb navigation to the folder panel. Currently, especially when I'm currently inside the "target folder", I'll have to navigate one folder up and then drag the folder from there.

It would be nice and a minor time saver to be able to drag the folder from the breadcrumb, too


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Navigate to a folder
2. Try to drag the breadcrumb entry of that folder to the panel

OBSERVED RESULT
Breadcrumb can't be dragged

EXPECTED RESULT
Bradcrumb can be dragged

If I understand correctly, is your expectation to be a regular drag with copy/move/link option ?
After a move, what should the view display ?

As a workaround you can switch to the detail view with expandable folders.

This is rather a niche usecase for a challenging feature to implement.

Drag Bradcrumb

I'd like to click and hold on the folder marked with "1" in the screenshot (so the right-most, currently displayed folder) and then drag it over like the arrow "2" in the screenshot. The folder (in my example "pkg") would then show up on the places panel. The main view should remain the same, e.g. still display the "mod" subfolder.

To achieve this currently, I would have to navigate one folder up (so to "go" in my screenshot) and then drag the folder "pkg" from there.

If this is difficult to implement, feel free to close the wish, it's just a small annoyance and can be circumvented by spending 2 extra clicks. I had hoped that this might be just something like a flag added to the breadcrumb and thought this could be useful.
