mouse-based move should move (not copy) items

gianroccolazzari

Hi,

I suggest that when dragging items to a different collection (folder), the item should be deleted from its original folder (if you want, you could prompt a message like "do you wanna delete from its original folder? ", bit I don't think it's necessary)

thanks

No, this is how library-based apps work. They're not folders. You can use a modifier key to move.

While it is great that items can be in multiple folders at once (once you get used to it, you realise why that makes sense), you can also move items from one collection to another by holding down Cmd (on a Mac, I assume Ctrl on a Windows) and dragging.
