move to upper directory with FTP Connect in other pane bug?

Post by *Sheepdog »

Sometimes I move a folder to the upper directory but replacing the path with '..'.

There is 'C:\folder\otherfolder' marked. I press [F6] and type '..' and [enter].
After that there is no directory 'otherfolder' in 'c:\folder' instead of that now there is 'C:\otherfolder'.

Today I tried to do so, but in the other pane was an active FTP-Connection. TC tried to move the folder to the FTP-server instead to the uppper directory.
with the error message 'transfer faled, continue operation?' .

I expect that TC moves (or copies) the selected file to the upper directory if I type '..' as path (filename) regardless if there is an FTP_ Connection or a usual folder in the other pane.
