DO12 - Checkbox mode - move button in find results

I've just turned on checkbox mode in a find results lister, ticked some files, and clicked Move on the operations toolbar.

There was no destination lister, so I was expecting a destination dialogue to open up. But nothing. The files have disappeared from the find results lister (and on redoing the find, from the original folder) but where have they gone?

I don't know their filenames so can't easily search for them :frowning:

Update: found them in a folder that was open in a completely different lister window at the time. That's unexpected - a minor bug?

Not a bug; it allows you to copy and move things between windows.

Source and Destination describes how it works.

Ah, that makes sense - I'm used to an object - action - destination flow rather than a destination - object - action flow.

Must remember that in future :slight_smile:

If you want to you can change the command to ask you for a destination all the time. E.g. change copy to Copy TO=ask$ and move to Copy MOVE TO=ask$.

Thank you jon, that was exactly what I wanted the button to do :slight_smile:

This is exactly why i paid the upgrade fee to move to DO12 this morning - because not only can Dopus do this stuff, but there are developers on the forum guiding you in the right direction :thumbsup:
