--- Comment #62 from jimbo <loudsq...@tutanota.com> --- It seems pretty intuitive that dragging and dropping is by default a move operation. It's nice to have the option to prompt beginners as to what they want to do, but it soon becomes a nuisance. Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V are not 'poweruser' shortcuts, they are as commonly used as Ctrl+Z and Esc. If users want to copy a file then Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V are most likely used, not via the context menu. If you can copy/paste text, then the same applies to files. Initially you might learn to click the file, select copy, navigate to a different folder and select paste. However copy/pasting is used so often (throughout all programs) that it's one of the first shortcut keys you learn, same applies to undo (no one goes through the context menu for it once they learn the shortcut). Windows allows the user to alter the outcome of the drag and drop during the operation. If you want to copy or create a link then there are modifier keys that can be held down. Using the modifier keys, there is visual feedback like a '+' sign or 'arrow' added to the mouse cursor, but if no modifier key is pressed then it defaults to move. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
