Problem transfering folders via drag-n-drop on Windows XP

#1 Post by bluetrust » 2004-10-20 03:37

I found a small bug in the user interface: when dragging and dropping a folder in my local pane onto a folder in the remote pane, FileZilla incorrectly saved the folder to the currently open directory on the remote server rather than within the folder I had dropped onto.

As an example, my local pane is showing C:\Work, my remote pane is showing /home2/. I attempt to drag the folder C:\Work\articles onto the folder /home2/html/. The html folder lights up, giving me feedback that I'm selecting it. I drop the folder. It saves into /home2/articles rather than /home2/html/articles.

It's a sneaky trick I use in CuteFTP Pro to avoid having to display the html folder (which contains nearly 8,000 files). It's no big deal, just thought you should know.

Great FTP client all around by the way, I'm recommending it to users of my free hosting service.
