HeftCD Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) Hello, ( working in DATA DVD -MODE ) yes, sometimes it may be a good way to create folders and subfolders automatically and place the files in there (complete Data backups) - when dragging selected files from a File Explorer/TotalCommander. But not in any case. Specially when I add files from explorer to "root DIR" of a project I expect to find them placed where I dragged them to (f.e. in root) and not hidden in folders and subfolders - as they are lying on my harddisc. At moment I have to move (drag) the fiels out of them to root by manually and need to delete the unwanted (sub)folders any time I am dragging files on the list. That costs time. Is there a way to add the files directly to wished place - by setting a checkable option checkbox in OPTIONS, yet ? Which I didn't see? Or please could it be added to options in further versions. And an UNDO-Function for dragging (adding and moving files, creating , reanaimg , deletiing files and folders, etc. in DISC-LAYOUT-Editor would help to increase working speed) I hope you could read and understand my problem and concern - I am sorry, my English isn't best, but I am working on it. I would be very happy if the could found a solution. Many, many thanks - For the software program and at all. Edited January 22, 2012 by HeftCD
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Maybe you enabled 'Preserve Full Pathnames' on the 'Options' tab? It's off by default so it's something you'd have done manually.
HeftCD Posted January 22, 2012 Author Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) ha - WellI supposed I you have implemented it ... and I was sure, that I read this anywhere ... but where ? mhh, I don't find it in Options widonw now grml ... (do I have tomatoes on my eyes ?? ) whether on suppage 1, 2 nor 3. Can You give a hint or screenshot please? Thanks Edited January 22, 2012 by HeftCD
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 There are 4 (or 5) tabs visible on the main window when you're in Build mode. One of them is 'Options'.
HeftCD Posted January 22, 2012 Author Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) ahh, OK, the tabs on the right side/panel. yes .. now I find it ... I looked now for it in =>Tools=>OPTIONs' tabs. For a general option. Thanks. Yes, that is a quick way. Makes sense, too. I saw it when I browsed through all options when I started IB first time, but I did not expect it there anymore.
