Can it support more actions in "Edit Mode / File System"
-
In Edit Mode (i.e. Ctrl + 2) / File System, can not manipulate files and folders freely, for example:
- delete a folder
- copy/move/drag/drop file(s)/folder(s) (without these functions, it's not convenient to manipulate the file structures. When moving I have to 1. copy the files to a temporary place 2. delete the files one by one in project 3. copy the files in the temporary place back in a new place in the project 4. add them to the project)

Hi
It can remove ( and delete if checked) a file from the project tree and update the .pro file.
However, there is no support for moving the files to say subfolder and have the pro file updated.
(As far as i have seen )

Thanks

@jronald You can move files by renaming them, i.e. press F2 and then change the (relative) path of the file. It will update the project accordingly.
For your other questions: There is a patch under review that implements drag&drop: https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt-creator/qt-creator/+/275376
For everything else feel free to add suggestions at bugreports.qt.io.

It's ok, but not very convenient. If it can be manipulated as in a file browser, it'll be very convenient and efficient.

I prefer cut & paste more, I'll wait and hope there is an update about this, and using VS with Qt plugin now.
For everything else feel free to add suggestions at bugreports.qt.io.
OK
Thanks
