Drag & drop of files and folders

medini_1024169437

You can manage documents within a medini projects since the beginning. Such a document can be either a file that has been copied into the medini project or an arbitrary link to an external document (wiki page, hyperlink, whatever). To ease the work, a user could drag & drop a single file to any medini folder to copy it or - while pressing the ALT key on Windows - link it.  With 21.2 the drag & drop behavior has been extended to also support folders and shared file systems. Th enhancements: Multiple files/folders can be dropped at once Dropping a folder will drill down into that folder and will copy all files and folders inside and re-create the complete hierarchy Pressing ALT key when dropping a folder will create a link to that folder instead of copying files Before copying a folder it is scanned for structure and size and the user is warned in case the numbers exceed certain reasonable limits File and folders on shared drives are detected and the UNC path is stored in the reference instead of the local drive letter (in case one is used) to increase the usage within a team. Background: different users may have connected a shared folder to a different drive letter) Try and enjoy! Jan
