New options on copy dialog

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.
