File station Split screen

Post by Dugimodo »

Personally I'd like it when moving files around if I could have the source and destination folders open at the same time. This would make it much quicker and easier to do multiple operations without navigating back and forth.
I know you can use a file manager on the PC and I do this, but on windows for example with mapped network drives the PC thinks they are 2 separate locations and does a full copy over the network which is very slow compared to a local file move in file station. Anyone else think this is a good Idea or is it just me?

be careful with moves on filestation ..it has a bug ..on moves where the destination has a permission error the source files are still deleted....

many people have lost files that way

Windows Explorer or mac OS Finder don't have split screen, too. In a multi-windows environment, this Sidekick, NC, or whatever legacy is not required: We can open multiple File Station windows. Welcome to 2017.

Amazing... the Ajax Web GUI actually supports drag'n'drop between two File Station windows!! I had no idea! It never even occurred to me to try... I'm impressed. Learning something new everyday :-)
Thanks Kurt!
