Possible way to move file/folder

[Antexa]

Hi,
It would be nice if we get the ability of moving file/folder to another folder

[mmozeiko]

Technically its possible now - you need to go to source file or folder and press "Download" for it. Then in destination simply type same-remote-name:/destination/folder. Destination must be a folder. If source is a file, then it will will be placed in destination folder with same file name (I am not yet using new rclone copyto and moveto commands). Destination folder will be created if it doesn't exist.

Not a very nice way, but it works. I couldn't figure out nice way to allow this in GUI within the same window. Maybe adding two new menu items in right mouse click popup menu would be a way to go - first time you select source, and 2nd time you select destination, and then it invokes transfer window.

You could add Cut and Paste options to the right click popup, or move files via mouse drag
and then move them with the moveto command

It would be great to have the ability to easily move files and folders, especially for our encrypted remotes because we can't figure out which file is which so we can't move them from Amazons graphical interface.

Well actual moving will be responsibility of rclone. I'll provide only easy way to start this from GUI.
Afaik currently rclone cannot do move inside crypt remotes. It will download and upload file. Not sure if that is fixed yet or not.

Thanks for the reply @mmozeiko !

Yes! That's what I meant.

I haven't tested the move command on an ecnrypted remote, but I don't see any limitation for encrypted remotes in the documentation.

@mmozeiko
the moveto command works on crypt remotes without downloading/uploading the files

[AggelosM]

Oh right. So probably using this command on the GUI will work :)

[mmozeiko]

@dewa710, excellent. I'll switch to use moveto instead of move.

You will plan to add "right click" menu to move files with same remote?

[ghost]

This is just to say that I too would welcome the ability to move folders (and let me add: thank you very much for rclone-browser; it is something of a godsend).

[NoLooseEnds]

Yes, would be nice to able to move folders via the GUI on the remote.

Any update of this?

Did implementing the moveTo command on right click prove tricky or is there a backlog of other features in front of this one?
