Hi All,

I would like in the next update to add Y/N to moving a folder, I have many folders and sometimes I still have my active mouse on a folder when I move it and the next thing I see is a message saying "Filters associated with this folder will be updated" I do not want to move it so can you put "do you want to move this folder Y/N" than if you put Yes than put the next window up.

Regards,

Barry Parsons

You might make it fly if users get an option to never be asked the question again. My personal feeling is moving is a drag and drop action. Why are you holding down your mouse button? take you finger off it and the problem will not occur.

Hi Matt,

It is happening to me a lot, I do not intend to move it, it just happens and it takes me a lot of time to undo the problem as I have six groups with many folders in each and when it happens I need to find where it was. Drop and drag is not the answer as the place to drag to could be 20-30 folders away to put it back where it was. Barry
