New options on copy dialog

Post by *eugensyl »

At extended options, on copy dialog, it would be nice to have option, at overwrite files dialog box, to delete the file from source or destination path.

I think this can be useful even in synchronize tool.

Why?

When you have a selection and you have a action (copy) with this selection, it would be nice to make one single workflow with those files.

If I understand correctly, you can already do this (with the mouse) in the overwrite dialog:
right-click on the coloured icon (on the right side of the file you want to delete) and choose "delete" from the appearing system context menu.

HTH...

Thanks!
It's a good point.
You can view, edit, archive, cut and copy to clip each file during the copy action.
But "cut" it's seem, don't work.
I think it's end of the road, because always destination will be overwrite and source can't be removed until is in memory.

Agree. On a closer view I'm also missing the "delete" entry in there.
So at least a TC internal option "Delete Left" / "Delete Right" would be nice here and make the Sync Tool even more flexible.

=> Support.
Maybe as another option behind the "More Options >>" button.
