why TC does not ask for folder name while you move a folder?

[Michael REMY]

hi,

when you move [F6 key] a file, TC always offer the user the way to rename the file in the dialog box.

but when you move a folder, TC never offer the way to rename the folder.

why ?

What's stopping you? Just replace the first asterisk with the new name. (Press F6 twice)

Better both (F5/F6 once more), otherwise folders with dots in name will be copied incorrectly.

E.g. you copy/move Folder1 to:

Code: Select all

C:\Location\*.*

Wildcard part *.* should be changed to new folder name, e.g.:

Code: Select all

C:\Location\Folder2

As a result, folder will be copied/moved as C:\Location\Folder2.

Also entire target path may be changed just to new folder name if C:\Location is the currently opened in active panel, e.g.:

Code: Select all

Folder2
