Shows incorrect cursor icon while dragging

Open FichteFoll opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I noticed that the default action of dragging is to move even though it shows the icon with a + (which usually means copying).

In addition to that, it would be cool if I could modify the file operation of the drag and drop action with a modifier key like in other file managing apps. Nautilus uses the following modifiers:

  • shift to move
  • ctrl to copy
  • ctrl+shift to link
  • alt to ask

Initially raised in #409.

Yes, that looks like the Nautilus alt behavior. Do you want to make ask the default? I think keeping moving as the default is reasonable as that should be expected for most file management operations, at least it is for file managers afaik.
