Description Ali 2024-04-15 23:16:54 UTC
== WISHLIST / FEATURE REQUEST ==

SUMMARY
Allow navigation through folders, tabs and side panel shortcuts while dragging and dropping by simply hovering over said objects for a few seconds. This behaviour is in Nautilus and Finder, and makes navigating subdirectories while dragging and dropping files to be less of a painful maneuver. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Drag any file
2. Hover over any folder, tab, or side panel shortcut

OBSERVED RESULT
You keep holding the file instead of entering the directory 

EXPECTED RESULT
You enter the directory after a few seconds of holding the drag and dropped file.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Make this a configurable option if possible, maybe even make the time it takes for a directory to be entered from the hover state be changeable?

Enable "Open folders during drag operations" in Dolphin settings.
