Move

From Forklift Wiki

To move selected item(s) simply use drag and drop. Drag and drop will also work across other applications, such as Finder.

While moving items inside ForkLift, spring-loaded folders allow you to navigate inside subfolders by holding the mouse over a folder.

To move the item(s) selected in the active pane to the folder opened in the opposite pane you can also use:

• the toolbar icon
• select File > Move
• the commander style keybinding set allows the use of F6.

In the case of a large amount of data copied, the Activity Viewer will pop up to show progress of the transfer. While the copy is carried out, you can continue working in ForkLift, since longer processes are run in the background by default.

[edit] Conflict management

---

In case of conflict during a move operation, ForkLift will ask whether you want to:

• replace the file or folder,
• merge the folders,
• skip the file or folder, or
• resume a previous transfer,

whichever action applies.

Please note that Merge is not yet available on local folders.
